The Fête de la Musique is a unique event that celebrates the summer solstice with music. Every year on June 21, the streets, parks, gardens, courtyards and squares of France are transformed into open stages to welcome musicians and music lovers alike. Music takes over Paris and the whole of the Île-de-France region. Musical artists take over the capital's most iconic venues, including one of Montmartre's most symbolic monuments.
The Sacré-Coeur, the majestic basilica that dominates Paris from the Montmartre hilltop, is a powerful symbol of Parisian history. With its Romanesque-Byzantine architecture and dazzling whiteness, it offers an idyllic setting for a concert. Begun in 1875 and completed in 1914, it was conceived as an act of repentance after France's defeat in the Franco-Prussian War and the troubles of the Paris Commune. Consecrated in 1919, after the end of the First World War, the basilica is now a major tourist attraction, attracting millions of visitors every year to admire its impressive architecture. So when it comes to celebrating the Fête de la Musique at the Sacré-Coeur, we say yes! Discover the program that awaits you this year.
