« Do you waaaant to, ha-ha. » If, like us, you’ve had this song stuck in your head non-stop since October 18th, here’s some news that should bring you joy. Star Academy is getting ready to open its pop-up. What’s in store: a real-life “Christmas Apartment”, where you can meet the teachers, relive the iconic moments of the show, and step into the shoes of the contestants.

With over 20 years of existence, the Star Academy has been able to touch entire generations of French people, many of whom have dreamed of being able to go to the castle in Dammarie-les-Lys to attend a dance class, take a singing lesson, or even (and especially!) make a call from the famous red telephone for that brief daily minute. Well, for Christmas, a lovely gift awaits you from December 18 to 21: a Christmas Apartment from Star Ac’, which has a number of surprises in store for you.


A total immersion alongside stars from the show

Located just a stone's throw from the Place de la République for 4 days, TF1 invites you to experience a totally unique adventure by slipping for a few moments into the shoes of one of the contestants from the Star Academy.

In a completely redesigned space to recreate the atmosphere of the castle, some lucky individuals will have the honor, upon registration, to take classes alongside current teachers.

Others will also have the chance to join a pajama party with former contestants — whose names haven't been revealed yet — to ask all those burning questions about the behind-the-scenes of the show. A hall of fame will pay tribute to the most iconic participants, and a viewing room will let you relive the most legendary moments from previous seasons.


Tons of activities to feed your Star Ac’ passion!

In addition to these must-see events, you'll be able to enjoy this exclusive pop-up to write letters to the current students, create posters to cheer them on during the live shows, and learn the choreography of the official anthem in a real studio thanks to some awesome...

de Jonathan Jenvrin, stock up on goodies in the shop, take a break at the café, or even customize your Christmas decorations with a Star Ac flair.

The cherry on top is that, for 4 days, the Christmas Apartment will be the perfect place to join in on Watch Parties for the daily shows, as well as the prime, all in the spirit of sharing your passion with fellow fans just like you. For those who want to dive into the full experience, you can even sing your heart out with a karaoke featuring all the biggest hits from the show. So, “would you like” to meet us there?
