Marc and Joelle from Rotondes joined the Breakfast Show to discuss the upcoming PICelectroNIC festival, happening on Sunday, April 27th, in Bonnevoie, Luxembourg. PICelectroNIC is a family-friendly music festival known for its tagline: “For headbanging kids and grooving parents.” It’s been running for several editions and this year introduces Mini PICelectroNIC with the event taking place outdoors for the first time, embracing the public park space and local neighbourhood collaboration.
The festival offers a vibrant program of music, installations, performances, and interactive activities, tailored for children while remaining engaging for adults. The lineup includes DJs, electronic music artists, and surprise pop-up acts like a trumpet player performing in various spots. Artists who typically perform for adult audiences adapt their sets for younger crowds, creating unique and spontaneous experiences.
Workshops play a big part in the event, allowing children to build instruments and even perform, shifting them from passive viewers to active participants. Marc and Joelle emphasised how inspiring it is to see children enthusiastically engage by dancing, headbanging, and even trying to storm the stage!
This year’s shift to an outdoor format adds a fresh layer of excitement and challenge, but it also opens doors to more community interaction and playful surprise moments, like discovering music in a neighbour’s garden. The event runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., with free entry. The organisers hope to inspire creativity in young attendees while offering a good time for parents too.
