27-30 september | PARIS

Four days to celebrate and protect the ocean.

a common goal

The ocean deserves better than to be the subject of a conference.

Launched by the eco-conscious surf brand Nomads Surfing, Ocean Days has established itself over six editions as a key French event for ocean advocacy. The concept is simple: to raise public awareness through sport, art, and culture, and to convey a message of hope for future generations.

In 2026, the festival will take place in Paris from September 27 to 30. Its highlight will be the evening of September 29 at the Carrousel du Louvre, held under the High Patronage of the President of the Republic. Scientists, photographers, athletes, and artists will take the stage, followed by an exclusive, one-of-a-kind DJ set to close the night.
