First major event announced

One year after its opening in the Saint-Mauront neighborhood in Marseille, the Maison des Arts Marseille (LaMAM) announces the launch of its first major artistic event titled À tous les mondes #1, from November 12 to 21, 2026. This event is part of a recurring series designed to highlight the cultural institution’s focus on hospitality, diverse narratives, and support for amateur artistic practices.

Opening with a musical performance

The programming will begin on Thursday, November 12, with a concert by the multilingual neo-soul and hip-hop artist KOKO. She will perform her project Anahit, which blends her Armenian heritage with jazz and soul influences.

Theater performance on the second day

The following day, Friday, November 13, the Egyptian director and writer Ahmed El Attar will present his play Salma, mon amour, originally created at the Avignon Festival. The performance explores contemporary issues through the story of a bourgeois Cairo family dealing with regional conflicts.

Dance highlighting environmental issues

Contemporary dance will be featured on Friday, November 20, with Combat des lianes by Cameroonian choreographer Zora Snake. This performance, involving seven dancers and musicians, addresses deforestation and the resistance of the Baka indigenous peoples in Central Africa against environmental threats.

Free day for amateur practices

The event will conclude on Saturday, November 21, with a completely free day dedicated to amateur artistic practices. The program includes a decolonial dance workshop by Zora Snake, a presentation by an amateur hip-hop collective, and a documentary theater piece by Estelle Renavant that gives voice to adolescents from France, the Comoros, and Senegal.
