Programme

Les Aralunaires has existed since 2009 and showcases independent artists and labels, emerging artists and original sensory experiences across multiple styles, all in public and private heritage locations throughout Arlon—caves, apartments and gardens. This human-scale festival with curious and distinctive programming features 5 days, 39 artists, 13 concert venues in public and private heritage locations, a free showcase route (the Lab), surprise concerts and a bike ride. 2026 centres on a new 360° covered stage architecture (the Dome) never before installed in Belgium, with artists performing in the centre and spectators able to circulate around.
