Stereoparc Festival

What Stereoparc Festival does

Stereoparc Festival is a French non-profit electronic music festival founded in 2018 and held annually at the historic 17th-century Corderie Royale in Rochefort, Charente-Maritime. The two-day event serves electronic music enthusiasts aged 16+ across techno, hard techno, EDM, house, and tech house genres, programming a multi-stage experience built around the WATERFALL mainstage, the 360-degree THE ISLAND immersive stage in the riverside gardens, an AFTER stage, and the adjacent Stereocamp stage at Stade du Polygone. Surrounding the main festival, the organization operates a year-round ecosystem of sub-brands including a pre-festival StereoNight techno opening event at La Poudrière, an emerging-talent DJ Contest REVERB sponsored by Crédit Agricole, and an on-site camping product (Stereocamp).

The technology backbone is event-operational rather than product-software: ticketing is run through a Weezevent widget embedded on stereoparc.com, all on-site transactions (food, beverages, merchandise, Beauty Village) flow through a WeezPay cashless wristband system with online pre-loading and post-festival balance refunds, secondary-market ticket resale is routed through the official Reelax Tickets platform, and on-site amenities include PowReady lockers and portable phone-charging stations. The organization does not publish any AI/ML capabilities, proprietary software products, or data products.

Commercially, Stereoparc operates as a direct-to-consumer event business with revenue streams spanning tiered ticket sales (€45–€82 for passes, €57 camping bundle, €1 cashless activation), on-site concessions, VIP hospitality packages for corporate partners, and camping access, supplemented by institutional and brand sponsorship from Crédit Agricole, Coca-Cola, Decathlon, SNCF TER, Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Charente-Maritime Department, and Ville de Rochefort. Distribution combines organic social (Instagram, TikTok), email newsletter via Weezevent, formal press accreditation, dedicated media partnerships (Technomag, Prysm Radio, Itin-bis), and community-driven events like the REVERB contest and StereoNight. The team is small (~7 employees) with a dedicated partnerships manager and volunteer coordinator, and the operation has reached at least its eighth annual edition with phase-1 inventory selling out for the 2027 cycle.
