To round off its second day in Paris, the Olympic Flame is treated to a concert featuring three renowned French artists: Jain, Mentissa and the duo Ofenbach.
On July 15, the Olympic Flame of Paris 2024 will travel through the capital, ending its relay on the Place de la République. To celebrate this historic event, an exceptional concert will be held on this symbolic site of Parisian culture.
A concert to celebrate the passage of the Olympic Flame through Paris
Coca-Cola's music platform, Coke Studio™, has chosen three French-speaking artists to create a festive moment by offering Parisians a free concert to mark the arrival of the Olympic Flame. Artists Jain, Ofenbach and Mentissa were selected in light of their actions that bring to life at least one of the three energies of Paris 2024: that of sport, the collective and the territories.
After carrying the Olympic Flame themselves during the day, the three French-speaking artists will perform a magical show that begins after the cauldron is lit on stage. Short presentation:
Jain
Pop artist with electro and rock accents, who offers a recognizable style among many others that has enabled her to stand out and make a name for herself thanks to flamboyant, hard-hitting tracks such as "Makeba" in 2015, which went viral on social networks again in 2023.
Ofenbach
Today, they are the most streamed French group in the world, with over 4.5 billion streams, 3 Diamond discs, 22 Platinum certifications and 21 Gold certifications. After a sold-out Zenith de Paris, they return for an exceptional show to celebrate the arrival of the Olympic flame in Paris.
Mentissa
Nominated in the "Révélation Féminine" category at the 2023 Victoires de la Musique awards, her career is off to a very promising start. Her first single, "Et bam", has racked up over 40 million listens on the platforms and won a diamond single in France, while her first album, "La vingtaine", has been certified Disque d'Or.
The program
On this magical evening, the three artists will take to the stage from 8pm. In addition to this musical event, the 30,000 participants will be able to take part in a unique moment when the Olympic Flame arrives on stage and the cauldron is lit live.
Participants will also have the opportunity to enjoy unique experiences thanks to the Coke Studio™ animations that will be available on the Place de la République.
The evening will also be broadcast live on France 2 and presented by Laury Thilleman, Laurent Luyat and Mohamed Bouhafsi.
The arrival of the Olympic and Paralympic Flame in Paris

During these 2 days, 146 bearers of the Olympic Flame were selected by Coca-Cola®, including Jain, Ofenbach and Mentissa, who will carry the Flame on July 15.
