RocknRolla 2026 Festival

the big night of the summer in Juan-les-Pins

The RocknRolla Festival returns to the Côte d’Azur for another spectacular edition. After a highly successful first year, the rocknrolla festival will be bringing music and rock fans together on Friday 3 July 2026.

In this iconic venue, the rocknrolla festival promises an exceptional atmosphere combining tribute concerts, entertainment, DJ sets and an open-air party atmosphere. It’s a unique opportunity to relive some of the greatest rock and pop classics and legendary years in music history.

Bohemian Rhapsody

The “Best in Europe” tribute show in Juan-les-Pins

This year, the rocknrolla festival is celebrating Bohemian Rapsody – Queen & The Police / Sting, a show billed as the Best Tribute in Europe. Join us on Friday 03 July 2026, from 7.30pm to 12.15am, at the Pinède Gould (on the Jazz Festival stage) in Juan les Pins, Antibes.

Following the success of the 1st edition in 2025 (with Covertramp, The Depeche Mode Experience, With U and Nosonic), the rocknrolla festival returns with two of Europe’s finest tribute acts, coming together for a major live experience dedicated to the legends of rock and pop rock.

An evening in two parts: The Police & Sting, then Queen

  • Part 1 – THE POLICE & STING by The Rozzers
    Regarded as the best tribute band to Sting and The Police in the UK, The Rozzers (formed in 2011) have been playing concerts, festivals and international dates non-stop. Led by Owen James in the role of Sting, the band is currently on tour in Europe: a performance not to be missed this Friday 3 July 2026. (Videos: YouTube – The Rozzers)
  • Part 2 – QUEEN by Break Free
    Next up is Queen with Break Free, often described as one of the best tribute acts in Europe, “the most faithful to the original”. Led by four passionate musicians, the show is a spectacular tribute to Freddie Mercury, with its powerful vocals, live energy and stage presence. As Freddie Mercury once said: “A concert is not a live performance of our album. It’s a theatrical event.

A festive evening in the heart of Pinède Gould

As well as the concerts, the rocknrolla festival offers a truly festive experience with a range of entertainment and DJ sets.

A well-known Côte d’Azur DJ will host the evening with a selection inspired by the 70s and 80s. It’s the perfect way to keep the party going in this exceptional setting.

Fans of Depeche Mode and Supertramp will also be able to rediscover the spirit of the great classics that have marked and influenced a whole generation of artists.
