Fête de la Musique or Music Day began in France in 1982 and was the brainchild of former Minister for Culture Jack Lang. It’s an all-day, all-night festival of music to celebrate the summer season. Musicians, amateurs and professionals alike perform for free in public places from parks, to street corners, railway station, not necessarily in concert halls or stages.
Fête de la Musique is now celebrated in more than 120 countries, making this the biggest multi-cultural music festival in the world.
Manila music lovers will be wowed once again when Fête brings together the country's top music groups in one festive day and night. - presented by Alliance Française de Manille, Pulp and the French Embassy in Manila.
