The announcement of this project marks a decisive step in the Belgian pop artist’s career. Following the phenomenal success of her previous releases, this new studio creation is already generating high anticipation among French-language pop fans. The decision to leave a one-year gap between the album’s release in autumn 2026 and the start of this major tour in 2027 stems from a desire to share: allowing the audience to make the melodies their own and learn the lyrics in order to fully participate in the collective communion of the live shows.
The Belgian pop artist announces her grand return to the stage with a concert by Angèle in Bordeaux in 2027, scheduled for Saturday 23 October at the Arkéa Arena in Floirac. This date is part of a vast international tour that will accompany the release of her highly anticipated third opus.
Since her remarkable debut, the artist has won over a wide audience thanks to her innate sense of melody and her lyrics that mirror a connected era. The announcement of this stopover in Gironde reflects the essential role played by the Bordeaux metropolis in hosting major European music tours. This show is thus set to be one of the major cultural events of 2027 in the region.

An autumn stopover in Gironde
Angèle’s return to the spotlight will take the form of a long journey across the globe. Starting in spring 2027, this major tour will cross France, Belgium, several European capitals, and North America. The Bordeaux metropolis will host one of the latest French dates of the season, in the very heart of autumn, offering the Aquitaine public a warm reunion.
This strategic choice of a late-year stopover highlights the ongoing appeal of French regional venues outside the summer festival season. The audience in Gironde, renowned for their warm welcome during indoor tours, will thus enjoy a well-rehearsed show after several months of international performances. This autumn stopover promises to be a bright and festive interlude for spectators from all over the Sud-Ouest.
A highly anticipated return to the stage in Gironde
On this occasion, the Belgian artist will return to the stage of the Arkéa Arena, a venue she knows well from performing there during her previous tour, the Nonante-Cinq Tour. Her memorable visit in 2022 sealed a special relationship with the audience in Gironde, who were won over by the nostalgic tones of her iconic hit. The concert is scheduled for 8 pm, an ideal time to attract a family audience from all over Nouvelle-Aquitaine.
The Arkéa Arena quickly established itself as the ideal venue for hosting shows of this scale in the region. The enthusiasm generated during Angèle’s previous visit still resonates in the memories of local concertgoers. By scheduling her performance for 8 pm, the production ensures maximum accessibility for families, students, and working professionals wishing to enjoy an evening of modern pop without major scheduling constraints, enhancing the conviviality of the event.
The genesis of the new album Instinct
This major stage journey will accompany a major turning point in the artist’s career. Her third studio album, entitled Instinct, is set to be released on 16 October 2026. Following the successive triumphs of Brol and Nonante-Cinq, the artist continues a dizzying international rise, boasting nearly four billion streams on global platforms.
The first two albums left their mark on French-language pop with their ability to capture the spirit of the times. Brol, a true revelation, unveiled a unique voice, while Nonante-Cinq explored more personal themes with a musical maturity acclaimed by critics. This third project, Instinct, promises to explore new artistic territories while retaining the melodic freshness that characterises the singer. The impressive volume of accumulated streams testifies to an unbreakable bond forged with an ever-growing and loyal community of listeners.
A confirmed international pop trajectory
Her prestigious collaborations with Dua Lipa, Phoenix, and Kavinsky bear witness to an artistic recognition that extends far beyond French-speaking borders. While no details have yet emerged regarding the stage design or the setlist, the production is already set to be tailored for the largest arenas, benefiting from a one-year gap after the album’s release to allow the audience to fully familiarise themselves with this new repertoire.
These eclectic partnerships demonstrate her ability to navigate with ease between different musical worlds, from international pop to leading electro-rock. This versatility enhances the appeal of her stage performances, which benefit from high-level technical resources to bring the album’s tracks to life. The tour’s creative teams are focused on designing a striking visual and sound show, capable of transposing the intimate world of a record to the spectacular dimensions of a Zénith or a modern arena.
Details of highly anticipated ticket sales
Although the concert date is far off, securing tickets will require immediate responsiveness. General ticket sales are officially scheduled for Wednesday 2 September 2026 at 10 am sharp. To ensure fair access to tickets, orders will be strictly limited to eight tickets per buyer, with prices varying according to different seating and visibility categories.
This sales policy aims to offer every potential spectator an equal chance of attending the event. The phenomenon of automated purchases by bots and secondary market speculation prompt organisers to adopt protective measures. By limiting the shopping basket to eight tickets, the production favours direct access for genuine music lovers and families, ensuring a healthy distribution of available seats within the Floirac venue.
Practical tips for the opening of ticket sales
To optimise the purchasing process and avoid the inconvenience of digital congestion, it is recommended to create a customer account in advance on authorised platforms. The Arkéa Arena also invites spectators to carefully study the different offers in order to exclusively favour official distribution channels.
On the day of the sale, speed is often decisive in securing the best seats, particularly in the Gold category or the standing pit. Logging in beforehand, verifying the validity of payment methods on your profile, and choosing a stable internet connection are all useful habits to complete your transaction with peace of mind. Purchasing through recommended official channels remains the only effective safeguard against fraud and invalid tickets at the entrance.
Meticulous logistics at the Arkéa Arena
Located on Avenue Jean-Alfonséa in Floirac, on the right bank of the Garonne, the Arkéa Arena is preparing to receive a considerable turnout. On the evenings of major shows, road access and parking areas quickly become saturated. Using public transport from Bordeaux city centre is the smoothest alternative for spectators.
Direct shuttle buses and increased tram frequencies will facilitate round trips for this major event. Details regarding park-and-ride facilities, cycle routes, and specific access points will be updated by the venue closer to the concert date, to ensure a seamless experience for all spectators.
The venue’s integration into the Bordeaux Métropole public transport network ensures a steady and secure flow of spectators. Access via active travel, such as cycling thanks to the cycle paths laid out along the Garonne, is an increasingly popular option for the local public. Arriving early also allows visitors to take full advantage of the venue’s catering services and settle in without rushing before the start of the show.
The Arkéa Arena, a modern venue at the service of culture
Inaugurated in January 2018, the Arkéa Arena quickly established itself as the flagship of live entertainment in Nouvelle-Aquitaine. This multifunctional complex, notable for its white undulating facade evoking a pebble, was designed by the renowned architect Rudy Ricciotti. With a capacity of up to eleven thousand spectators in its maximum configuration, this arena meets the strictest technical requirements of contemporary international productions.
Thanks to its modularity and carefully designed acoustics, it offers optimal comfort and listening conditions for the audience. The establishment of this structure on the right bank of the Garonne has revitalised the cultural offering of the Bordeaux metropolis, allowing it to host major tours requiring complex technical configurations. Angèle’s return to this modern setting is thus part of the history of this dynamic stage, accustomed to celebrating pop in all its forms.
