La Fête de la Musique

Event Description

The annual musical celebration of the summer solstice, launched in Paris in 1982, has become a Europe-wide, all-night happening, with everything from Baroque and hip-hop to techno and tom-toms on street corners and town squares.

Amateur and professional musicians share in the foundational spirit of the festival: music everywhere, all concerts are free to the public, and all performers donate their time for free.
