The Pitchfork music festival in Paris took place at La Grande Halle nestled on the edge of the Parc de la Villette. Guiding audiences to the festival, the concert hall’s large neon letters bathed the plaza and fountain in front of it in red. Past the gates was a long pavilion with food and drinks outside and two stages inside. The venue was a great location for the festival, complete with vegetarian food options and a photo booth or what the French call a “photomaton.” It was funny to overhear comments from French concert goers about how there were so many Americans and English speakers in attendance, as it was an event sponsored by an American webzine. Ultimately, it probably speaks to the new international reach of the publication.
