"I listened to all of Jean Michel Jarre’s albums obsessively, to the point of knowing every note by heart. His music accompanied me as I wrote '2010 : Odyssey Two'. His concerts are always a celebration of wonderment… "
- Sir Arthur C. Clarke, futurist, cult science fiction author of "2001" and "2010"

Jean Michel Jarre wished to pay tribute to this legendary, literary giant in giving the title of "2010" to his world tour which debuted six months ago to full houses in the United Kingdom, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Holland, Poland…and to audiences of all generations. One word welcomed him on the road: Pioneer.

Today, Jean Michel Jarre is synonymous with Myth. Oxygene, Equinoxe, Magnetic Fields, but also Deserted Palace or Zoolook imposed a visionary genre of music of which we can find influences of amongst many artists, from Air to Daft Punk, Moby or The Chemical Brothers.

His concerts are also part of the Jarre myth. Those who have had the opportunity to witness these exceptional events that have marked his career, from China to Houston, London Docklands to the Great Pyramids of Egypt…will forever remember these extraordinary events.

His electronic music and singular performances have travelled the globe and left their imprint on major landmarks from Houston's skyline and London's Docklands to the Pyramids of Egypt. For his arena tour he aims to break new ground and again deliver a unique concert experience.

A unique opportunity to live, or relive, an extraordinary moment.
