Pet Shop Boys

Pet Shop Boys return to Paris on 1 July 2026 at the Zénith de Paris – La Villette with Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live. Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, a duo formed in London, have shaped a distinctive electronic pop, combining crisp melodies, finely crafted synths and lyrics that are often ironic or melancholic. From "West End Girls" and the album Please, their trajectory spans the decades with Actually, Introspective, Behaviour, Very, Electric, Hotspot and most recently Nonetheless in 2024. With 44 singles reaching the UK Top 30 and 15 studio albums placing in the UK Top 10, their repertoire links radio formats and club culture.

On stage, Pet Shop Boys devote as much attention to image as to music, working with collaborators from film, design and architecture such as Derek Jarman, Zaha Hadid and Es Devlin. Dreamworld condenses forty years of songs, from their synth-pop beginnings to house excursions, balancing dance-ready choruses and more intimate ballads, carried by Tennant’s clear voice and Lowe’s keyboards.

Having appeared at Glastonbury, Coachella, Madison Square Garden, the Hollywood Bowl and the Olympia, the duo has expanded across venues and projects, from musical theatre to ballet. In Paris, the emphasis will be on the landmark songs that tell their story since 1985, presented in a live format designed to revisit each period without heavy-handed nostalgia.
