MaMA 2026: three nights of Pigalle, one pass, 150 artists

The 17th edition runs the Pigalle and Montmartre rooms for three nights, with the daytime convention on two days only, 14 and 15 October. Take the Thursday.

· Facts checked September 11, 2026

October 14–16, 2026 · La Cigale

Concerts run from 19h on 14, 15 and 16 October; the convention sits in the daytime on the 14th and 15th only. That asymmetry is the whole point of Thursday the 15th: the professional crowd is still in town and the rooms are full of people who work the other side of the stage.

Around 150 artists play over 100 concerts in the evening, with more than 120 conferences, panels and workshops in the daytime, across the Pigalle and Montmartre circuit, La Cigale included. The format is built for walking between rooms, so the running order matters more than the headline names. Early tiers started at €23 for one night and €49 for three, with a €150 Pass Pro; rates move, so check the box office on the day. Passes are nominative: no wristband may be picked up by a third party, and you may be asked to present identification.
