Rock En Seine has announced a new wave of acts for 2022, with the star attractions including Run The Jewels and Kraftwerk.
The French festival is due to take place across four days (August 25-28) at the Domaine National de Saint-Cloud in Paris.
Tame Impala and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds were announced as two of this year’s headliners last October, with Arctic Monkeys confirming their bill-topping appearance the following month.

Elsewhere on the bill are the likes of James Blake, Kraftwerk, IDLES, Yungblud, Fontaines D.C., Jamie xx, Beabadoobee, Inhaler, Jehnny Beth and more.
For nearly 20 years, Rock en Seine has been one of the biggest dates on the French music summer calendar and it’s one of the great unmissable European festivals. With a daily capacity for 40,000 festival-goers, Rock en Seine brings together some of the best international pop and rock acts, with emblematic headliners and the best newcomers in an ideal setting: the beautiful Domaine de Saint-Cloud.
“We are delighted to announce these exciting additions to the line-up for this August,” Matthieu Ducos, GM of Rock En Seine Festival, said in a statement.
“There are fantastic artists lined up for the whole weekend and we’re incredibly excited for what will be a truly return to Domaine National de Saint-Cloud. We look forward to seeing you all there. More than ever, we aim to be one of the unmistakable rendezvous for all French and European live music fans.”
Headliners Arctic Monkeys have also confirmed headline performances at Reading & Leeds, Lowlands, Cala Mijas and Sziget as they prepare to release their highly anticipated seventh album.
