Event at the Cité des sciences et de l’industrie in Paris! From January 2, 2025, the Planetarium offers a unique digital and musical experience around the legendary group U2. Every Sunday, find the Irish band's classics screened for the first time under a full dome!
« Sunday Bloody Sunday », « Where the Streets Have No Name », « Beautiful Day », « Elevation » or even « Vertigo “… Difficult to list all the hits signed U2. Since its formation in 1976 in Dublin, this rock group has had a string of successes, albums and tours. To date, the group – composed of Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton et Larry Mullen Jr. – has 17 albums to his credit.
While a new opus should soon see the light of day, fans of U2 are now waiting to know when he will make his stage return to Europe, and particularly to France. We recall that the last Parisian concert of U2 dates back to 2018. That year, the quartet took over the Accor Arena in September. Two years ago, U2 had settled down at the Stade de France for the 30th anniversary of “The Joshua Tree”. More recently, U2 offered a series of shows at the impressive Sphere in Las Vegas, United States.
While waiting for a possible tour in 2026, fans of U2 will have the opportunity to (re)discover some of the Irish rock group's many hits in a rather original way.
As of January 2, 2025, the Planetarium of the City of science and industry in Paris opens its doors to a unique digital experience dedicated to U2 songs. Every Sunday, from 6 p.m., lovers of U2 will thus be able to rediscover the group's classics in 360° in dome projection complete and this, for the very first time!
« Sunday Bloody Sunday », « Pride », « I Will Follow You », « With or Without You », « The Fly », « Mysterious Ways »… so many titles signed U2 to listen to in unprecedented acoustic and visual conditions!
This is not the first time that the Planetarium of the City of Sciences and Industry puts music in the spotlight. Thus, until December 30, 2024, the Planetarium offers an original immersion to the sound of 42 minutes of the legendary album “The Dark Side Of The Moon” de Pink Floyd.
