The biggest French convention dedicated to street culture is back from March 14th to 16th in the capital city! For 3 days, the highly anticipated event returns with concerts, conferences, talks, workshops, and exhibitions around the hip-hop movement and culture.

It's because hip-hop has never been so present in French culture that events like the L2P Convention are necessary. From rap, which has become the most listened to music in France on streaming platforms, to the excitement of dance, graffiti, and fashion related to hip-hop, this vast domain deserves its dedicated events, also to put an end to certain prejudices. Always under the leadership of the cultural center dedicated to hip-hop cultures, La Place, this convention aims to be a space between the public and professionals, an exchange space where you can learn as much about freestyle and beat making as about Sacem and the business of live rap, or how to manage a dance company. The event will shine throughout Paris and for the first time in the 93 with 6 partner locations: the Gaîté Lyrique, Spot 24, Canal 93, FGO-Barbara, the Forum des images, the Grand Palais Immersif.Fifou during the L2P Convention 2022 © Fibo

4 events not to be missed

A club night at la Gaîté Lyrique

For its fourth edition, the convention will start with an exceptional evening in collaboration with Dans le Club from ARTE concert at la Gaîté Lyrique. The concept? Uniting rap scenes from yesterday and today. Dans le Club has become a must-attend event for rap fans, offering half an hour sets by rappers (or groups), a DJ set, and a host to rally the crowd, all filmed in a club atmosphere close to the performers and the audience.

Live performances by young talents

On the music side, La Place stage will welcome three undeniable young talents: Furlax, Jaïa Rose, and Ruthee. An evening full of promises at the intersection of rap and r'n'b to discover live those who will shape the music of tomorrow.
