Contemporary music at the foot of Fort Carré in Antibes Juan-les-Pins
The Festival MUSIC of Antibes Juan-les-Pins celebrates the diversity of contemporary music in an exceptional setting between the sea and ramparts. Heir to the musical effervescence of the Antibes city, this summer event offers an eclectic program mixing pop, rock, electro, French chanson, and artistic discoveries. Organized on the Esplanade du Pré des Pêcheurs, in the heart of the old town of Antibes, the festival offers a friendly and accessible musical experience, a stone's throw from the beaches of the Côte d'Azur.
The Festival MUSIC in Antibes Juan-les-Pins is part of the rich musical tradition of this seaside resort, the birthplace of the famous Jazz à Juan. This contemporary music festival offers a resolutely modern program, mixing pop, rock, electro, French chanson, hip-hop, and world music. It stands out for its commitment to highlighting both national headliners and emerging artists from the Azuréenne scene.
The festival takes place on the Esplanade du Pré des Pêcheurs, an open-air space located at the foot of the ramparts of old Antibes, facing Port Vauban and a few meters from the Mediterranean. This unique setting, between historical heritage and maritime atmosphere, offers an incomparable festive experience. The main stage benefits from quality sound and professional lighting, while spectators enjoy the mildness of Mediterranean summer evenings.
The program of Festival MUSIC is designed to be eclectic and open, reflecting the diversity of musical tastes of the Azuréenne public. Each evening features several artists or groups, allowing for the discovery of varied musical universes. DJ sets and activities complement the concerts, creating a festive atmosphere that lasts late into the night. The festival hosts both established artists from the French scene, local talents, and international discoveries.
Supported by the City of Antibes Juan-les-Pins, Festival MUSIC is part of the municipality's summer cultural program, rich in musical and artistic events. It complements the festival offerings of the Antibes city, which notably include Jazz à Juan, the Big Reggae Festival, and Les Nuits Carrées. The festival contributes to the animation of the city center and the tourist dynamism of the Antibes Juan-les-Pins destination.
The friendly spirit of Festival MUSIC is at the heart of the event. The site has bars and food stalls offering local specialties and varied dishes. The relaxed and warm atmosphere encourages encounters and exchanges between festival-goers. The festival is also committed to an eco-responsible approach, with selective waste sorting, the use of reusable cups, and the promotion of soft transportation.
