THE OPENING

WEDNESDAY 15 JULY 2026 – FROM 6 PM

4 SCENES.
4 UNIVERSES.
1 NIGHT.

To properly kick off Dour, we called the mates. Four collectives will take over the festival site on Wednesday 15th July from 6 PM.

On Wednesday, 15th July, The Opening officially kicks off the five days of the festival and invites you to the site for a special evening, reserved for holders of a Doureuuuh pass, featuring major collaborations and an already electrifying energy.

From 6pm, the first bass notes will resonate to kick off the festivities. On the agenda: 4 styles, 4 worlds, 4 different vibes. Unique stages, unmissable collectives, and an atmosphere that will make you and your crew feel alive.

240KM/H for an intense face2face at the heart of De Balzaal, where the energy will be at its peak;

Grünt will take control of La Petite Maison dans la Prairie for a unique moment;

Agobun at the Dub Corner for sounds that will take the audience on a journey;

JauneOrange at La Brasserie for a vibrant scene and performances not to be missed.
