Lagon Nwar live in Lyon

Experience Lagon Nwar live on March 6th

Lagon Nwar is scheduled to perform at the Musée des Confluences in Lyon, France on March 6, 2027. The artist, originating from Réunion Island, creates music often categorized as a blend of electronic music with influences from maloya, a traditional musical genre and ritual practice of Reunion. Their sound incorporates elements of dub, techno, and bass music alongside the percussive rhythms and vocal styles characteristic of maloya, frequently exploring themes of identity, displacement and cultural heritage.

The Musée des Confluences, opened in 2014, is a science and anthropology museum situated at the confluence of the Rhône and Saône rivers in Lyon. Designed by Coop Himmelb(l)au, the building itself is notable for its striking architectural form resembling a metallic cloud or crystalline structure. The museum’s permanent exhibitions focus on the origins of humanity, the diversity of societies and ecosystems, and perspectives on possible futures. It functions as both a museum space and a cultural venue hosting various events including concerts. The location’s design intentionally reflects themes of connection and convergence – mirroring its position at the river junction and its multidisciplinary approach to knowledge.
