Le Gala des Pièces Jaunes 2026 is set to return as one of France’s most important charity events. Each year, several K-pop artists perform at the charity gala with global stars. In 2025, j-hope, Rosé, and G-Dragon headlined the event. Lisa and Stray Kids performed at the 2024 ceremony along with Maroon 5, Pharrell Williams, Gims, and A$AP Rocky.
Le Gala des Pièces Jaunes is the flagship event of the annual Pièces Jaunes fundraising campaign. It is organized by the Fondation des Hôpitaux de Paris and chaired by the First Lady Brigitte Macron. For more than 35 years, the foundation has worked to improve daily life for children and teenagers in hospitals across France.
Funds raised through the campaign help create playrooms, educational spaces, and accommodation for parents staying with hospitalized children.
This year also brings together global music stars, classical artists, and a powerful cause. The festival will take place next week, and here’s what you need to know.
