  • 20:00 – 23:00 Kool & The Gang

Kool & the Gang, officially launched in 1969. Thanks to iconic songs like Celebration, Cherish, Jungle Boogie, Summer Madness, and Open Sesame, they’ve earned two Grammy Awards, seven American Music Awards, 25 Top Ten R&B hits, 9 Top Ten Pop hits and 31 gold and platinum albums. Kool & the Gang has performed continuously longer than any R&B group in history.  

In 1964, Ronald Bell and his brother, Robert “Kool” Bell, joined Jersey City neighborhood friends Robert “Spike” Mickens, Dennis “Dee Tee” Thomas, Ricky Westfield, George Brown, and Charles Smith to create a unique musical blend of jazz, soul and funk.  

1973’s gold disc Wild & Peaceful took Kool & the Gang to another level, spurred by the immortal party anthems Funky Stuff, Hollywood Swinging and the platinum smash Jungle Boogie. 
The 80’s would see them dominate the mainstream, starting with the double platinum- selling album Celebrate (driven by the international monster hit Celebration). 
Kool & the Gang's years of hard work and talent earned them an induction into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in June 2018.  

In 2019, Kool & the Gang celebrated their 50th Anniversary. The group continues to delight fans around the globe with their timeless hits and amazing live performances. 

  • 23:00 – 00:00 The Avener

Tristan Casara, AKA The Avener, is no ordinary DJ. A piano player since the age of five, he is an accomplished musician and composer. 
His first album The Wanderings of the Avener, and the track Fade Out Lines, were hits in over ten countries. In 2020 he released Heaven, in collaboration with Rick Nowels and other cult musicians. 
The single Quando Quando was the sound of summer 2022, followed by clubbing track Alpaca in 2023. The Morning Sun accompanied the dawn of 2024 – announcing a project inspired by a variety of sounds and consolidating The Avener’s reputation for innovation. 

The Avener performed an exclusive “lockdown” set during the night of the Virtual 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2020. This time, it’s for real on the Le Mans stage!
