Don’t just like it, live it!

Héctor Oaks leads a night of fierce techno and acid, blending post-industrial thrust, ghetto‑tech grooves and searing acid for an explosive, focused set. Phase Fatale b2b Audrey Danza weave complex basslines and cinematic, relentless soundscapes into a hypnotic, immersive journey. In a second room, Hirma and Magz deliver high‑voltage sets mixing Afro‑influenced rhythms, Jersey, drum’n’bass, house and hip‑hop; other artists add warm, colourful DJ sets and garage/breaks/bass flavours.

11 – 22 February

Véronique Déthiollaz and Guy Schibler present a dialogue between drawing and photography that confronts mortality through laughter, desire and celebration. Déthiollaz’s graphite, occasional pastel and ink drawings deploy ironic, grotesque figuration—mocking skeletons and humbled reapers—while Schibler’s photographic series documents funerary sculpture and cemetery vistas that reveal provocative sensuality. Together the works probe how humour, eroticism and festivity resist oblivion, refusing pain through visual excess and theatricality, and interrogate cultural attitudes toward death, embodiment and memory.

Saturday 21 February, 20:00

Georgio, the acclaimed Parisian rapper known for his hit album “Années Sauvages,” is making his stage comeback with two new singles. He will perform at the Alhambra as part of the Festival Antigel.

11 – 22 February

Choreographer Ugo Dehaes replaces his human troupe with extravagant robot-dancers endowed with an artificial intelligence that invents their own choreography. Intimate and unsettling, the performance invites the audience to sit around a table as the mechanised performers execute an uncanny, rhythmic ballet. Marie Peeters’ dramaturgy frames questions about labour, profit and the place of culture, while Wannes Deneer’s scenography and musical composition shape a tactile, immersive atmosphere. The piece blends humour, critique and physical precision.
