FVTVR welcomes Detroit Love back to Paris on Saturday, 9th May 2026, as the Parisian venue once again becomes the home of the internationally recognized Techno institution. Spanning 12 hours across two floors and four rooms, the event offers an immersive journey through the sound, heritage, and future-facing vision of Detroit Techno in a single, carefully curated night.

From the moment doors open, the experience unfolds as a seamless progression of sets from some of Detroit’s most influential pioneers alongside forward-thinking artists carrying the torch today. The multi-room format allows the program to trace the evolution of Detroit Techno, from its industrial roots to its modern interpretations. The lineup features Mad Mike Banks (Live), Moodymann, Juan Atkins, and Carl Craig — artists whose contributions define the city’s musical legacy and continue to shape the global electronic scene.

A rare live performance from Mad Mike Banks, co-founder of Underground Resistance, stands as one of the night’s defining moments. Banks’ work embodies the political, militant, and experimental core of Detroit Techno, where music functions as both artistic expression and a powerful statement of cultural identity. His presence reinforces the deeper ethos behind Detroit Love — a platform rooted not just in sound, but in message and movement.

Founded by Carl Craig, Detroit Love has grown into an international cultural reference point, synonymous with musical integrity and respect for Detroit’s heritage. Its fourth edition at FVTVR further cements the club’s role as the Parisian home for the brand, a venue purpose-built for long-form, immersive formats that mirror the collective’s philosophy and attention to detail.

The industrial, warehouse-style architecture of FVTVR naturally echoes the origins of Detroit Techno. Across its four rooms and two levels, sound, light, and spatial design converge into a unified sensory environment. A finely tuned sound system and dynamic lighting design transform the venue into a physical experience, where every rhythm, texture, and modulation is not just heard but felt collectively on the dancefloor.
