Worldwide Festival Sète

For 10 years now the festival has been scanning the horizon for new talent, while also leaving space on the lineup for legendary DJs and live acts. And it has evolved from a weekend by the sea in 2006 to an entire week of concerts in the port city of Sète on the Mediterranean coast, a 30 minute drive from Montpellier airport.

The Worldwide Festival was born in Sète in July 2006, the joint initiative of Freshly Cut and Gilles Peterson based on one simple concept: To create a different kind of festival, offering a unique artistic selection inspired by Gilles’s radio show “Worldwide”.

After expanding to Asia with one edition in Shanghai and 4 editions in Singapore, the Festival has now its own winter event in Leysin, Switzerland. Worldwide baby!
