The Pause Guitare Festival, held from July 2 to 7, 2024, once again proved why it's so beloved by its loyal followers. More than just a musical event, this great village celebration attracted and delighted thousands of festival-goers with its unique atmosphere and exceptional program.

Record attendance and flawless organization

This edition welcomed 65,000 spectators throughout the week in Albi. To manage this impressive crowd, Easytransac set up 180 electronic payment terminals (TPE), enabling more than 100,000 transactions to be processed without a hitch. These devices were strategically placed across the site, covering bars, catering areas and VIP access, ensuring a seamless experience for all attendees.

An efficient management system

In addition to payments, Easytransac's technology also facilitated management of access to dressing rooms and catering, as well as the Open Bar system. Thanks to this optimized organization, festival-goers were able to take full advantage of the festival's various offerings without any hassle. The terminals ensured fast, secure transactions, reducing queues and cash concerns. This efficiency also benefited the organizers, who were able to concentrate on other logistical and artistic aspects of the festival.

A dazzling 2024 program

The festival offered a rich and varied program, featuring renowned artists such as Calogero, IAM, Louise Attaque and Alice Cooper. Since its inception, Pause Guitare has always combined emerging talent with international stars, offering a diverse stage full of surprises. Artists such as Bénabar, Cali, Renan Luce, Deluxe and Cats On Trees, once in their infancy, have found a stage to launch themselves, while welcoming legends such as Sting, Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, Joe Cocker, Elton John, Scorpions and Iggy Pop. This artistic mix has made the festival a not-to-be-missed event where musical discoveries and spectacular performances meet.

A unique and festive atmosphere

This year, the festive atmosphere was in full swing, with themed bars where each staff member dressed up according to specific themes, using solid colors and fluorescent accessories. This playful touch helped to reinforce the joyful, convivial atmosphere, reminiscent of village festivals but with a much bigger turnout.

Conclusion

The Pause Guitare 2024 Festival was a complete success, combining flawless organization and an unforgettable atmosphere.
