A new Fête de la Musique this year! Every June 21 since 1982, the people of France have been taking to the streets with their instruments to make music come alive! Every year on the same date, budding musicians and singers take to the streets, squares, bridges, boulevards, squares, parks, gardens, bars, cafés and restaurants, as well as churches and museums, to pay tribute to music in all its forms.
Rock, rap, reggae, zouk, classical, French variety, jazz, blues, funk, metal and electro... all styles will be in the spotlight on June 21, thanks to the talent of amateur musicians, as well as a number of well-known artists giving free concerts for the occasion.
In Paris, there's no shortage of musical events to choose from, including those at theOlympia, on the square in front of the 15th arrondissement town hall, and atSaint-Eustache church.
Elsewhere in the Île-de-France region, Fresnes is also celebrating. This Val-de-Marne town is once again taking part in the Fête de la musique. Known as home to the Fresnes penitentiary center, considered one of France's most important penal institutions, the Ile-de-France commune makes a point of celebrating culture throughout the year.
In 2024, Fresnes celebrates music on Friday June 21, and summer on Saturday June 22. What's on the programme? Free concerts by local amateur artists on June 21, 2024 from 5pm to 10pm in the Parc des Sports, followed by a fireworks display at 11pm from the Stade de la Paix.
Then the following day, Saturday June 22, the town of Fresnes continues the festivities, celebrating the arrival of summer with a variety of events and a free concert by singer Cali, not to be missed at the Parc des Sports from 9pm.
