Artus: what is the comedian preparing at Paris La Défense Arena?

The comedian is getting ready to take the stage at Europe’s largest venue on March 27 and 28, 2026 with an ambitious show.

It marks the end of a tour that has lasted several months. On March 27 and 28, 2026, Artus will perform his final two shows from his new solo act at the Paris La Défense Arena. These two shows are promised to be unique and unprecedented, using the venue’s specific features and the comedian’s unbridled energy to offer something different and never seen before.

The audience at the Paris La Défense Arena can expect an inventive and ambitious show, a new kind of live experience, blending styles and dark corrosive humor.

Everything is being kept under wraps for these unmissable evenings, which may have some surprises in store. While the Saturday, March 28 show is sold out, there are still a few tickets available for the Friday, March 27 show. Tickets can be purchased here.

This is a historic event in the world of stand-up and solo performances. By performing at the Paris La Défense Arena, Artus becomes the first comedian to perform in the largest venue in Europe.

Since the release and success of “Un P’tit truc en plus” (2024), the comedian-actor and director has been gaining popularity and is concluding a highly acclaimed tour across France.

Artus is also popular on social media, with his humorous sketches featuring his now iconic character, Sylvain. The two shows at the Paris La Défense Arena represent the peak of the 2026 Tour, as well as the recent career of the artist.

For this occasion, the show “Artus: le show XXL” will be filmed and later broadcast in cinemas on Thursday, September 24, 2026, providing an opportunity for those who cannot attend the Paris La Défense Arena show to catch up.
