On October 31 in Cannes, the 27th NRJ Music Awards ceremony will take place, where two performers from the Côte d’Azur - Linh and Santa - will compete for awards.

Ceremony in Cannes

The 27th NRJ Music Awards ceremony will take place on October 31, 2025 at the Palais des Festivals in Cannes. The host, as always, will be Nikos Aliagas. The broadcast can be watched on TF1 and NRJ at 21:10. Viewers can vote for the nominees on the NRJ website or through the radio station’s app.

Nissans in the list of nominees

Among the contenders for the awards are two singers from Nice. Linh is nominated for the first time in the category “French-speaking female newcomer”. “It’s magical to be nominated for the NRJ Music Awards… It’s absolutely insane,” shared the 30-year-old performer. Santa, who already has experience participating in the awards, is competing to win in the category “French-speaking concert”.

Chances of winning

Linh will compete with Star Academy graduates and other young artists. Santa, despite past failures (three nominations in 2023 without a win), hopes to finally receive a well-deserved award. In her category, DJ Snake, Gims and Julien Doré are also nominated.

Other notable nominees

Among the favourites of the ceremony are David Guetta (9 awards in his collection), nominated in three categories, and Alex Warren, vying for the title of “International Breakthrough”. The competition between Gims and Jul in the “French-speaking artist” category will be interesting.
