Fête de la Musique, also known as World Music Day, is an annual celebration held on June 21st, where cities around the world come alive with the sound of music. Originating in France in 1982, this vibrant event encourages amateur and professional musicians to perform in the streets, parks, and public spaces, free of charge. From classical to rock, jazz to folk, every genre is represented, creating a diverse and inclusive musical experience for all. Fête de la Musique fosters a sense of community and cultural exchange, as people of all ages and backgrounds come together to enjoy live music and celebrate the universal language of music.
