Last night in Lyon. After a six-year absence, Justin Timberlake is back in France with his “Forget Tomorrow World Tour”. After the first concert in Lyon on Friday night, fans left with their eyes still wide and their ears plugged.
A spectacular aerial finale that French fans have been waiting for months. Since the kick-off of his “Forget Tomorrow World Tour” at the end of April, thousands of videos of Justin Timberlake perched on a gravity-defying light platform have flooded social networks at each new concert. Enough to tickle the impatience of the 32,000 spectators at the LDLC Arena in Lyon, who bought their tickets for the American singer’s return to France on September 6 and 7, after a six-year absence.

“Memphis” to kick off the concert
Thirty- and forty-somethings – for the most part – therefore migrated to the LDLC Arena on Friday night. The groupies are rather discreet, we only see a few fan t-shirts and signs in the line. There is not a crowd at the various goodies stands, although they are well stocked. However, inside, while we are still taking our seats, the craze takes hold as soon as the American DJ Andrew Hypes launches a Justin Timberlake track. A first part that saw all the pop / r’n’b / rap tracks from the early 2000s, from Snoop Dogg to Gwen Stefani via Flo Rida and the Spice Girls. It is therefore in front of a cheerful audience that Justin Timberlake made his entrance on stage.
