Pitchfork Music Festival Paris 2018 returns to La Grande Halle de la Villette next week with the likes of Blood Orange, Peggy Gou, Kaytranada, Daniel Avery, Avalon Emerson and Bon Iver.

Ahead of this year’s edition, the festival has shared stage times for the three-day main event, which takes place November 1-3.

On November 1 the closing slot will be helmed by Mac DeMarco, with Blood Orange followed by Kaytranada locked in for the final slots on November 2. For the last day of the main festival a cast of dance music favourites have been selected, with a special ticket option on offer for festival-goers interested in the “club night” portion of the evening. A 4am performance from Daniel Avery will bring the festival to a close, with sets earlier in the night from Jeremy Underground, DJ Koze, Peggy Gou and Avalon Emerson.

The festival will be followed by two late-night afterparties at Le Trabendo, which take place on November 1 and 2. The first party features a string of familiar faces from the realms of experimental dance music and beyond, with the likes of Yves Tumor, Lotic and Or:la confirmed. The second night features Honey Dijon, DJ Seinfeld, Perel and more.
