About

Dub Camp has become a major event for sound system culture in France, with stages built around powerful sound systems and an international dub and reggae line-up. In 2026, despite heat prevention measures and extra facilities, the organisers had to cancel on the eve of the opening for safety reasons linked to the heatwave. The 11th edition, planned for 10, 11 and 12 July 2026, was cancelled on 9 July because of an exceptional heatwave.
