Esterel Happy Hour 2026-09-06 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sunday surprised us. What started as another relaxed Happy Hour on the rooftop quickly turned into something much more energetic. A group of new faces discovered the music — and apparently discovered an unlimited supply of dancing energy along the way. From warm Deep House and soulful grooves through Nu Disco, House and Afro House, the rooftop gradually became a little Sunday dancefloor of its own. The music kept moving as the sun went down, with a few familiar classics, a couple of unexpected t

I wasn't quite sure what to expect from Saturday. Instead, the rooftop ended up full for the entire afternoon, with some guests even discovering there wasn't a seat and coming back later. So I settled into the groove. Starting with warm Deep House and soulful rhythms, the set gradually moved through House, and deeper grooves without ever pushing too hard.

Read excerpt
The end of August brings shorter evenings to the Côte d’Azur, but there was still plenty of life left on the Esterel rooftop. Sunday’s Happy Hour was another intimate gathering, with a few new faces settling in and gradually becoming new fans. The set started deep and soulful, slowly building through house, disco and funky grooves as the afternoon slipped toward sunset. By the time Mark Knight & Funkagenda’s “The Man With The Red Face” arrived, I thought I had found the perfect place to call it
