France's Interior Minister Laurent Nunez speaks to the press during a presentation of the fire brigade's deployment on and around a "teknival" rave party at a military site in Cornusse, near Bourges, at a fire station in Baugy, central France on May 3, 2026. Between 17,000 and 40,000 people participate in the free party which has been taking place, without major incident, since May 1, 2026. The gathering comes as the French parliament is seeking to tighten legislation against unauthorised rave parties, introducing prison sentences for organisers and fines for attendees.
