Is Karmapa's show in Paris at Théâtre de Gymnase Marie Bell on August 2, 2025, still taking place? It's been really quiet around him, no more interviews about the event, no videos on YouTube of him rehearsing, no promo, etc.

It's probably because he and his band are still rehearsing for it

Lol, that doesn't make sense. Have you ever seen a show by a Kinshasa-based artist scheduled in Paris with zero promotion in the weeks leading up to the event? Bands always rehearse and do promotion on the same time through their spokemen and musicians or bandleader himself.

I think like many of the guys of karmapa's age,it takes time to get up to date with the new ways of promotion,maybe for him going to mamie ilela,nathy and co is enough,while its pretty much now tiktok pages,influencers,facebook pages handling 90 per cent of promotion of events
