The organizers welcomed the important changes made during this anniversary edition, in particular the transfer of the Pierre Rapsat stage from Place de l'Hôtel de Ville to Place Royale. This new configuration of the festival has conquered the public, professionals and artists. As proof, the French singer Calogero stressed at the end of his concert – one of the highlights of this 25th edition – to have "taken his foot" on this new site "breathtaking", which he will advertise in the artistic world. "We are starting from scratch but the basics are good, we have managed in 48 hours to solve problems that will not be in 2019. There are still adaptations to be made in terms of programming," badured the director Francos technique, citing the Trace and Play Right + scenes. The programming of the last concert on the Sabam for Culture stage is also debated. Mobility and accessibility to the site could also be improved, says Jean Steffens, co-director of Francofolies. "We could plan a second entry on the site whose layout was appreciated by the artists themselves". The other major revolution of this 25th edition was in the "cashless", this system to pay for its consumption via the chip embedded in his bracelet. A change appreciated despite queues sometimes endless when reloading the said chip. "We are going to provide these automata outside the site in 2019 to facilitate fluidity through the rue du Fourneau.The objective is to connect all the bars and food trucks of the site in the future, integrating the traders. Spadois who want it and especially allow festival-goers to recharge their chip via their own smartphone.We will also have the automata at different locations of the site, one of the two planned near the Rapasat scene had to be removed at the last minute ", explains Pierre Angenot, ticketing manager. On the artistic side, this 25th edition has met the expectations and allowed Belgian artists to play in front of a large audience, the new layout allowing festival-goers to make fun discoveries and to mix genres that would not have crossed by the past.
