Mark your calendars! The Gala des Pièces Jaunes returns on 23 January 2025, promising an unforgettable evening at the Paris La Défense Arena. Now on its third edition, the gala remains dedicated to its heartfelt mission of raising funds to improve the daily lives of hospitalised children. Known also as the Gala of The Yellow Coins, the event is anticipated to have an evening of sensational entertainment, featuring music acts by globally renowned artists. Building on the benchmark set in 2024—with memorable performances from Blackpink’s Lisa, Stray Kids, and Maroon 5—this year’s gala is determined to raise the bar even higher. Fortunately, we have the grand list of music acts performing this year down below.
ROSÉ
Sleep tomorrow because things are going crazy for Blackpink’s Rosé. Set to headline this year’s gala, the Korean songstress created a global cultural wave with her pop-punk debut single APT.—earning a widespread acclaim on the Western charts. As the first member of Blackpink to release a solo album, we can definitely expect her to perform more of her soulful hits from Rosie—mainly number one girl and toxic till the end.
G-DRAGON
Known for his groundbreaking style and musical talent, G-Dragon—the influential leader of K-pop group Bigbang—will also be gracing the stage at the prestigious 2025 Gala des Pièces Jaunes. Following a seven-year hiatus, the Korean megastar made an impactful comeback to the music scene with his solo singles Power and Home Sweet Home in 2024. Whilst preparing for his third-studio album, fans are anticipating a compelling performance from the major artist in 2025.
J-HOPE
BTS’s J-Hope is booked and busy. The Korean rapper embarks on an exciting new chapter in his music career with his first ever solo tour Hope On The Stage, set to start early this year. While he hasn‘t dropped any new releases, fans are buzzing in anticipation for new music this coming March after his official confirmation on Instagram.
TAEYANG
Alongside his Bigbang member G-Dragon, Taeyang will also reportedly return to the stage for the prestigious event in France. Currently flying across Asia for his The Light Year tour, the South Korean singer-songwriter continues to captivate audiences with his unique blend of talent and charisma.
KATY PERRY
Make way for the Katy Perry renaissance. A global pop icon of the 2010s with hits like Firework and Last Friday Night, Katy stepped back from music after Prism in 2020. Since then, the singer-songwriter spent her time focusing on her role as a judge on American Idol. Although, her comeback is loud and clear with her latest album, 1432, featuring singles like Woman’s World and Lifetimes—marking a powerful return to the spotlight.
JOHN LEGEND
We are sat and ready for John Legend. Producing one of the greatest ballads of all time with his 2013 hit single All of Me, John is known to captivate audiences with every performance. The Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter has since continued to produce timeless music, earning his spot as a global icon.
