After his chart-topping victory back in October last year with Electronica Vol 1: The Time Machine, JARRE’S VOL 2 mirrored its predecessor’s success globally in the charts as well, breaking into the top 10 in major markets such as the United Kingdom, Germany and France.

Now, with a unique and brand-new super production in tow, JARRE will kick things off this summer with a string of outdoor shows at Sónar in Barcelona June 17, after which he will move onto major venues across Europe including 02 Arena in London and AccorHotels Arena in Paris, as part of his Electronica World Tour. He will play further dates in Germany, Scandinavia, Poland, Austria, Switzerland and more.  See all of JARRE’s official dates here.
