Magic System

Thirty years after their beginnings in Anoumabo, Magic System celebrates its history on stage with a show that traces a trajectory born from Abidjan’s zouglou and expanded into an African pop nourished by afro‑urban influences. A’Salfo, Manadja, Goudé and Tino deliver a set designed for dancing, blending chorused refrains, supple rhythms and direct hooks. The classics are included – Premier Gaou, Bouger bouger, Magic in the Air – as well as tracks that shaped what came after, from Poisson d’avril to Africainement vôtre, without losing the spirit of their origins. What defines the group’s signature can be heard throughout: simple, collective songwriting, everyday stories and a pulse that carries the audience away. This Parisian stop reflects generations and stages alike, with zouglou grooves, coupé‑décalé inflections and an energy controlled by a quartet seasoned on big stages. Magic System celebrates its 30th anniversary on 21 March 2027 at the Accor Arena in Paris.
