The Académie-Festival de Musique des Arcs celebrated its 52nd edition from July 12 to 22, 2025. True to its values of freeness and excellence, the festival offered around forty free concerts in the resort of Les Arcs and the villages of Haute-Tarentaise, performed by over 60 internationally renowned artists.
