Vivendi to hold its second Vivendi Talents Show on April 21st

Regulatory News:

Following its tremendous success last year, Vivendi (Paris:VIV) is bringing the Vivendi Talents Show back to L’Olympia, the legendary music hall located in Paris, on April 21, 2016.

Hosted by the journalists and television presenters Isabelle Ithurburu and Ali Baddou, it will feature some of the Group’s young talents: Lilian Renaud, the 2015 winner of the The Voice in France; Anne Sila, whose beautiful voice was discovered on the same TV show; Panayotis, a mischievous reporter contributing to Le Petit Journal on Canal+; the sublime Denise, who won the first Island Africa Talent contest organized by Universal Music Group and Canal+ Group and broadcast on A+; the comedian Laura Domenge, currently performing at Le Point Virgule theatre in Paris; the electro pop trio Jabberwocky, recognized for their cult hit Photomaton put out by Polydor; and Jordin and Martin, the duo that performs the hilarious daily Mashup on the Canal+ talk show Le Grand Journal.

All of these young people are supported and accompanied by the Group’s various subsidiaries, whose activities share the same strong common denominator: talent.

In 2015, the Group launched Vivendi Talents, dedicated to the discovery and support of talent in the fields of humor, music and cinema. The objective of this unit is to offer them the best possible career path. Thanks to the diversity of its activities, Vivendi possesses all of the resources necessary to accompany them at every stage of their career: publishing, programming, distribution, show production, venues, ticketing, broadcasting, promotion, and merchandising.

If you wish to be invited to attend this private event, and subject to seat availability, please send a mail to [e-mail].
