French rapper Kaaris has announced a major concert at the Stade de France, set for May 22, 2027. In a statement, he described the event as "the first and last hardcore rap concert where it all began. At my place, in the 93," referencing the 93rd arrondissement of Paris, a historically significant area for French hip-hop culture. The concert will mark a significant milestone in Kaaris’s career, as he aims to perform at one of Europe’s largest venues, which can hold between 75,000 and 98,000 people depending on the setup. Ticket sales for the event are set to open on September 28 at 10 o'clock.
Kaaris has previously drawn large crowds, filling the Accor Arena in 2024 for two concerts and the Plenitude Arena in 2025, the largest indoor venue in Europe. This new event at the Stade de France would be his most ambitious to date. The rapper has released several projects in recent years, including the album Day One in 2023 and the mixtape Byakugan in June 2026, both of which received critical acclaim and further solidified his position in the French rap scene.
Gims was the first rapper to perform at the Stade de France, but since then, several other artists have followed, including Ninho, Jul, PLK, and Booba, who is known to be a major rival of Kaaris. This upcoming concert will bring together a legacy of French rap history, with Kaaris aiming to make his mark in a venue that has become a symbol of the genre’s growth and popularity.
In a promotional video released alongside the announcement, Kaaris promises to bring back "the hardcore, the rough, the trap, without filters" to the Stade de France. He describes the event as a moment where the audience will "burn everything down to the foundations," "make their voices heard," and "shake the entire world," emphasizing a collective experience of music and expression. The concert is expected to be a defining moment in Kaaris’s career and a significant event in the French rap community.
