From what I hear, it's going to be simulcasted on French radio. 
If anyone's recording it I would like a copy also! (email me). 

Here's some additional information:

Jarre will be playing at 'La Defense' on the 14th of July. This as a 
part of the show celebrating 'Bastille Day'. The Jarre part will start at
 9 P.M.  He will perform: 

1. older work in new orchestration,
2. material from the new studio album 
3. a "musical creation" made especially for the occasion. 

(its possible 2 & 3  are the same.) 

IF anyone heard rumors that he was to do the show last year, that's 
correct, but he didn't get permission from the right governmental
department (who knows who's giving their permission for these kind of
things?)

The show will be visible ALL over Paris with 'La Defense' as center,
and the "stage" will stretch all the way from Arc De Triomphe to
La Grande Arche. The cost is (as usual) huge - I've heard around
$ 7.000.000 but usually Jean-Michel goes well over budget.

I think it's going to be great, expensive but great.
