the dream programming of Internet users

The Eurockéennes 2025 poster, for the moment, is only filled with three names. The legendary Iron Maiden and the two groups who will open the evening of Thursday July 3 before them: Avatar and The Raven Age. The highly anticipated revelation of other names must take place before the end of the year even if the ticket office is already wide open.

In the meantime, we asked Internet users to tell us which artists they would dream of coming to applaud at Malsaucy. If some names seem accessible, others are much less so. Or not at all.

« You rock, you rock, you rock… »

Internet users let their hearts speak but a trend clearly appears: they want “rock, rock, rock…”. Just to honor the very name of the festival. Already served with Thursday, they want more. Even if it means dreaming really big. In the lead among the nearly 400 responses to our question on Facebook, we find the Italians of Måneskin, the legendary group The Cure which has just released an album Songs of a lost world (coming in 1995 and 2012), Ultra Vomit, Boss Bruce Springsteen, Imagine Dragons, Metallica (coming in 1999), Depeche Mode (coming in 2006) or even the Americans of Linkin Park, back on the scene this year with a new singer, Emily Armstrong, to replace Chester Bennington, who died in 2017.

In another, softer register, a lot of people dream of Coldplay. The English, led by Chris Martin, played in Belfort at the very beginning of their career, during the 2000 edition. It was the first major festival for the group which is now among the most listened to on the planet.

Popular international stars

If the rock groups previously mentioned have little chance of coming, either because they will not tour in 2025, or because they only do XXL dates, the same should be true for certain world stars. But here too, Internet users have the right to dream. Among the most cited are Lady Gaga, Manu Chao, Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars, the Weeknd, Eminem and Billie Eilish. Just that. Seeing their name appear on the poster of the Eurockéennes de Belfort would still be astonishing, just a few months after the arrival of French superstar David Guetta, who is among the top most listened to artists in the world.

From the most reasonable to the totally impossible

There also remain much more accessible names for the 2025 edition. Often French. Clara Luciani, new queen of French song whose concert at the Eurocks in 2022 had to be canceled due to storms, Jean-Louis Aubert, Julien Doré, Damien Saez, Kyo, Gaëtan Roussel (who came in 2011 and 2014), Santa, Matthieu Chedid (M) with his Lamomali project or the sensation of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, Gojira, a regular formation of the Eurockéennes (in 2006, 2009, 2017, 2023), came up often in the responses. To see if one or more of them will pass or return through Malsaucy at the beginning of July.

The only certainty, finally, is that some will not be there. Unless there is an absolute miracle. Jokers, some of our Internet users have given names from beyond the grave, from Jimi Hendrix to Elvis Presley, including Tupac Shakur or Michael Jackson. When you ask for ideal programming, you have to accept that legendary names come flooding in. The fact remains that the Eurocks, as magical as they are, do not yet have the power of resurrection. Just to promise the best to its festival-goers.
