Paris Electronic Week has announced its first panels and speakers.

The event will take place 25-29 September in the French capital, with various workshops, trade fairs, conferences and classes focused on the topic of electronic music.

Last year saw more than 10,000 participants in attendance.

This year, keynote sessions will include: ‘Togetherness: How to combine an emergent scene with headliners’, ‘Audio-visual performance and stagecraft at the heart of the party’, and ‘Tomorrow’s party becomes an immersive exhibition’.

Speakers from Burning Man festival, Nuits Sonores, Rinse France, 1024 Architecture and more will be present.

During the ‘What is Burning Man?’ talk, a panel will dissect the festival’s new audience of jet-setters and rich hippies, its meeting of technology with nature, and whether the event is straying from its core values.
