Deep Purple — Adidas Arena, Paris, 2026

Full concert capture of Deep Purple live at the Adidas Arena in Paris in 2026, the French stop on the British hard rock pioneers’ tour. On this newly opened Paris stage, the band led by singer Ian Gillan, bassist Roger Glover and tireless drummer Ian Paice delivers a set built around the classics of its catalogue alongside tracks from the album “=1”. Keyboardist Don Airey and guitarist Simon McBride, who joined in 2022, give this filmed live concert an energy that extends the quintet’s legacy without ever embalming it. For anyone who has followed Deep Purple since the 1970s, this Paris full concert is a valuable document: the interlocking organ and guitar that defined hard rock is heard intact, carried by a rhythm section of rare precision. An essential live performance to understand how the band, half a century after “Machine Head”, still commands the stage. Captured on a fan-filmed video, it joins the long line of Deep Purple live documents prized by collectors around the world.
