For its 2024 edition, We Love Green is no exception to the rule. Its various stages located in the Bois de Vincennes will welcome from May 31 to June 2 established artists, new sensations and musical hopes.
Last December, We Love Green announced the first names in its lineup. A few months before the start of the pogos and 100% vegetarian food trucks in the heart of Parisian greenery, the festival makes public all the artists who will take the stage during the 2024 edition. The event, which takes place every summer in Paris since 2011, will host 60 concerts over these three days. The full program can be found on the We Love Green website.
Rap in the spotlight
For several years, rappers have constituted an important part of the festival’s programming. Headlined by rappers Hamza, Ninho, Luidji, Josman and rapper Lala &ce, this 2024 edition will especially highlight French-speaking artists.
Among the new names freshly added to the lineup, the Parisian JRK 19 and the Martinican rapper Meryl. The We Love Green stage will also welcome Yamê, a young hybrid artist whose career took off this year, notably winning the Victoire de la Musique for male revelation of the year.
A global line up
The festival had already announced the participation of the Nigerian singer and composer Burna Boy, notably known for Afropop and Afrobeats, the French-speaking Algerian rapper Tif, the Australian DJ Skin On Skin and, among others, by the Canadian-Haitian electronic musician Kaytranada. Internationally known artists.
Tuesday April 2, We Love Green added to its programming the names of several foreign artists including the South African musician Uncle Waffles, the Spaniard Ralphie Choo, the Ivorian DJ Mel V and the Divin0 collective, fervent defender of the global club culture.
We Love Green also reserves a special welcome to British artists. The Bois de Vincennes will thus welcome Four Tet, the duo Chase & Status, singer Declan McKenna and DJs Sherelle and Skepta.
New generation
For several years, We Love Green has established itself as a pioneering festival, almost a talent scout, by giving broad visibility to emerging artists like Aya Nakamura in 2019. A commitment undeniably renewed for 2024.
The rappers NeS, Mairo and Malo, the DJ AMS and the artist and producer Meel B join the rapper Rounhaa and the singer Eloi, one of the promising faces of the French music scene.
