BFMTV and Le Figaro announced a joint weekly programme called “2027 Le Grand Oral BFMTV‑Le Figaro”. The hour‑long show will be broadcast live every Sunday from BFMTV’s studios and simulcast on Le Figaro TV throughout the 2026/2027 season, ahead of the spring 2027 presidential election.

The format will host leading political candidates and public figures for interviews, debates and analysis, with supplementary content such as fact‑checking and digital pieces. BFMTV reaches about 12 million daily viewers, while Le Figaro’s website recorded 257.7 million visits in January 2026.

The collaboration is slated to continue for other major election‑related special programmes and election‑night coverage.
