13 Fête de la Musique (World Music Day) Originally, the Fête de la Musique (or World Music Day) is a popular and free music festival taking place each year in France on the day of summer solstice, the shortest night of the year. Throughout the country and even abroad, jazz, soul, funk, rock, electro, reggae, classical music and many other musical genres are celebrated.

Now, Fête de la Musique has become one of the country’s greatest cultural events, celebrated in a cheerful and festive atmosphere by both amateur and professional musicians who perform in the streets, squares, gardens or courtyards for free, offering to the public all types of music genres. Since its creation in 1982, the music festival has become an international phenomenon and is celebrated on the 21st June in no less than 340 cities in the world in 110 countries including South Africa. This year, Fête de la Musique will partner with the Market Theatre Foundation to present a concert at the Windybrow Centre for the Arts on 16 June 2017. Watch the next issue of BUZZ for more details.
