About Fête de la Musique in Foix

Every June 21, Foix celebrates the Fête de la Musique (Music Festival): stages are set up throughout the historic center, at the foot of the castle, and music freely takes over the squares, market halls, and streets. Organized by the City of Foix, the day is entirely free and blends all styles, from classical to rock, from electro to traditional songs and world dances.

The Fête de la Musique in Foix

As everywhere in France since 1982, the Fête de la Musique transforms the city of Foix into an open-air stage every June 21. From midday until the heart of the night, amateur musicians, conservatory students, choirs, vocal ensembles, and local groups play for free in public spaces, at the foot of the Château des Comtes de Foix.

A festival throughout the historic center

Usually, several stages are distributed in emblematic locations in the city center: the Halle aux Grains, the Halle Saint-Volusien, the Abbatiale Saint-Volusien, Place Pyrène, the main courtyard of the Hôtel de Ville, Place Lakanal, or Place du 8 Mai 1945. Wandering performances also animate the narrow streets of the historic center. The program features a dialogue between classical music, rock, hip-hop, electro, traditional songs, choirs, and world dances.
