When Strasbourg turns into the coolest dancefloor in the East, it means we're in the midst of the Contre-temps Festival. Every year, this iconic event pops up all over the city, filling it with a contagious electro energy. For this 20th edition, trust me, you're going to feel the rhythm of the Pelouses Électroniques and Sonores, featuring DJ sets, groovy concerts, and clubbing nights.

The meeting is set at the Jardin des Deux Rives, a picturesque spot with the vibe of an open-air dancefloor. On June 7 and 8, it’s going to light up Strasbourg with two very different but equally festive afternoons. On Saturday, get ready for the Pelouses Électroniques from 3 PM to 10 PM: non-stop DJ sets, a chill yet sharp atmosphere, a bar, street food, and of course, entry is free!
An entirely free event
As for the lineup, we have some heavyweights from Strasbourg and nearby. It kicks off with Pattison (Dodekazz), a young prodigy swinging between house and UK garage, followed by ØDASS (hypnotic techno, groovy house, and breakbeats). Next up, we have Makar (Clubbin’House), a pillar of the local scene with vibes between Romanian minimal and soulful house. And to really seal the deal, E-Tron...ik, Steeven and Taktik from the Subtronic crew, along with the Flashball collective, will present an electric face-off between SunpR and 1Client.

After the high-energy beats on Saturday, Sunday brings a softer, live vibe live with the Sound Lawns, still at the Jardin des Deux Rives from 3 PM to 10 PM. It's a more family-friendly and relaxed atmosphere, but just as vibrant with groovy concerts and DJ sets. On the mic will be: Mr E (aka Eli). On stage, we’ll have the Midva Lofi Ensemble finally gracing the lawn with their delicate melodies. Then, the groove will kick up a notch with the wild Shrizz N Maze, a power band from Paris mixing funk, sax, guitar, and a trombonist. And to wrap up the day beautifully: La Nefera, a Swiss rapper with Dominican roots, will set the stage ablaze with a musical melting pot of hip-hop, trap, cumbia, baile funk, and jazz.
A little cherry on top...eau : to kick off the festivities, we recommend you not miss Wom·xorama, the 100% female clubbing night on June 7 at Wagon Souk. A total showcase for female artists who will make you groove, all in an inclusive and electrifying atmosphere !
