DJ Snake set for record-breaking concerts in France ahead of third album release

DJ Snake to perform at Stade de France and Accor Arena on May 10, ahead of third studio album and new music projects.

DJ Snake will make history on May 10 by performing back-to-back shows at two of France’s biggest venues: the 80,000-seat Stade de France and the 20,000-seat Accor Arena.

The unprecedented event comes as the French-Algerian artist prepares to release his third studio album, six years after Carte Blanche.

The first event, titled The Final Show, sold out within three minutes, leading DJ Snake to book the Accor Arena for a follow-up performance the same night. Both shows highlight his global appeal, with 13 billion streams on Spotify and multiple hits like “Lean On” and “Let Me Love You.”

Speaking to Billboard France, DJ Snake emphasised his deep connection to Paris and his journey from local DJ to global icon. He described the concerts as a “cultural victory” and a tribute to his roots, blending Arabic, African, and French musical influences.

Following the album release, DJ Snake plans to launch a new label to support emerging artists and also release a side project EP under his alias, The Outlaw. The EP is expected to reflect a more underground, creatively free style.

DJ Snake also acknowledged the shifting landscape of electronic music, citing rapid consumption via platforms like TikTok, and reaffirmed his commitment to creative independence and authenticity.

The two sold-out concerts mark a major milestone in his career and signal the start of a new chapter for one of France’s most successful electronic music artists.
