Tinariwen in concert
08-09 May 2026
Corida presents TINARIWEN in concert. Tinariwen are the pioneers of what is now known as "desert blues," a musical style they themselves call "assuf," which also means "nostalgia" or "homesickness" in the Tamasheq language. Having traded their Kalashnikovs for guitars after their participation in the 1990 Tuareg rebellion, the members of Tinariwen captivate their audiences with their raw vocals, soaring guitar riffs, and driving rhythms.
Over the past two decades, their popularity has steadily grown, and they are regularly invited to festivals worldwide, where they have made a significant contribution to raising awareness of Tuareg culture and identity. Tinariwen will be touring France in 2026, and will perform in Paris at the Cirque d’Hiver Bouglione on May 8th.
