United Souls hits the festival circuit
This summer, United Souls is once again meeting the public at several world culture festivals in France, Spain, and Switzerland.
These gatherings are more than just cultural events. They tell our shared stories, celebrate the flow of music, languages, flavors, and traditions, and bear witness to the richness of our contemporary and multicultural societies.
In a globalized world where cultures meet, transform, and interact, festivals are valuable spaces for sharing, transmitting, and discovering.
It is in this spirit that United Souls will hit the road with its exhibition Figures of Struggle and its stand.
Keeping memory alive
Since its creation, United Souls has chosen to highlight women and men who dedicated their lives to freedom, justice, the emancipation of peoples, and the defense of human rights.
Through clothing and the Figures of Struggle exhibition, their faces, stories, and struggles circulate anew in public spaces.
Patrice Lumumba, Thomas Sankara, Fela Kuti, Miriam Makeba, Frantz Fanon, Nina Simone, Amílcar Cabral, Maya Angelou, and many others remind us that our current reality is also the fruit of the struggles waged by previous generations.
Presenting this exhibition at the heart of festivals extends the musical and cultural experience by creating a space for memory, dialogue, and transmission.
First stop: Africajarc Festival
From July 24 to 26, 2026
Cajarc, Lot
The tour will begin in Cajarc, in the Lot region, at the Africajarc Festival.
For several decades, this festival has fostered dialogue between African cultures through music, cinema, literature, visual arts, meetings, and craftsmanship.
United Souls will present its stand there, as well as a selection of figures of struggle whose paths fully resonate with the political, cultural, and artistic history of the African continent and its diasporas.
Ingénieuse Afrique in Foix
From August 7 to 9, 2026
Foix, Ariège
The tour will continue in Ariège, at the Ingénieuse Afrique Festival.
This event celebrates the diversity of African artistic and cultural expressions in a spirit of encounter, solidarity, and sharing.
For three days, the public will be able to discover the Figures of Struggle exhibition, discuss the personalities represented, and find United Souls collections at our stand.
A new opportunity to keep memory alive in a different way, closer to the public.
Heading for Rototom Sunsplash
From August 17 to 24, 2026
Benicàssim, Spain
United Souls will then head to Spain to participate in Rototom Sunsplash, one of Europe's largest reggae and alternative culture festivals.
For a week, Benicàssim becomes a huge space for concerts, debates, meetings, civic engagement, and the discovery of world cultures.
The Figures of Struggle exhibition will be presented within the Jamkunda space, accompanied by the United Souls stand.
The brand's presence at Rototom is a natural fit with the history of resistance music. From reggae to afrobeat, from jazz to soul, many musical movements have accompanied the struggles for emancipation, denounced injustices, and carried the voices of oppressed peoples.
A special offer during the tour
During these festivals, United Souls t-shirts will be offered at the exceptional price of 30 euros.
The unisex model usually sells for 35 euros and the women's fit model for 39 euros.
We have also selected new colors for the tour, specially chosen for summer and currently unavailable on our online store.
These models can therefore only be discovered at the United Souls stands during the festivals, while stocks last.
Return to Toulouse under the tropics
Thursday, September 3, 2026
Tropical Discothèque at Le Petit Bikini
After several weeks on the road, United Souls will return to Toulouse by taking over Le Petit Bikini for a Tropical Discothèque evening.
The Figures of Struggle exhibition and the United Souls stand will accompany a musical program focused on tropical music and travel.
On the turntables, we will find DJ Émile Omar, former programmer at Radio Nova and great explorer of world music, accompanied by our friends from Toulouse Global Groove.
An evening to extend the summer, prepare for the new season in a tropical setting, and remind us that music can also be a tool for memory, resistance, and coming together.
The Yelen Festival celebrates its tenth anniversary
From Thursday, September 10 to Sunday, September 13, 2026
Le Pré Doux, Baulmes, Switzerland
United Souls will then hit the road again towards Switzerland to participate in the tenth edition of the Yelen Festival.
In Baulmes, in the heart of Le Pré Doux, artists come to share their stories, their gestures, their languages, their drums, their masks, and their voices.
The public is also part of this light.
This vision fully aligns with United Souls' approach: to build bridges between cultures, transmit sometimes forgotten memories, and remind us that the struggles of yesterday continue to illuminate today's challenges.
The Figures of Struggle exhibition and the United Souls stand will accompany this anniversary edition for four days of encounters and sharing.
A tour set to continue
Other festivals, cultural events, and popular celebrations will host the Figures of Struggle exhibition and the United Souls stand at the end of September and beginning of October.
Upcoming dates will be announced progressively on our website and social media.
This summer, come and discover the stories of those who refused injustice, spoke for the people, and helped transform the world.
Come and share, listen, dance, and keep their memory alive with us.
Faces, a struggle, a legacy to carry.
