Spacious, lush and designed as a garden where open-air concerts and lounge sessions blend with great food, it is one of the city’s most popular summer destinations.

A new concept for the Radio Paffental collective, which is taking over the Caves du Sud in Remerschen for the first time, nestled between the wine cellars and the vineyards. Nine local artists, including Fonclair, will take turns performing for 14 hours across two stages: one nestled in the cellars, the other outdoors amongst the rows of vines. Also on the programme: wine tastings, a vinyl market, food trucks and Pilates sessions, for a day that celebrates both the region’s wine-growing heritage and Luxembourg’s electronic music scene.

The evening then moves on to a concert by Kin’Gongolo Kiniata, a band from Kinshasa who make their own instruments from recycled materials to create a Congolese Afropop-punk sound, followed by a DJ set from Corleone Jr, a specialist in Afro-funk, disco and zouk.
