About Fête de la Musique in Le Cannet

Every June 21, Le Cannet celebrates the Fête de la Musique: open-air concerts in town center squares, an open stage for students, and musical parades in the neighborhoods. Organized by the City of Le Cannet, the day is entirely free and features covers for all audiences, choirs, jazz, and a festive evening.

The Fête de la Musique in Le Cannet

As everywhere in France since 1982, the Fête de la Musique transforms the city of Le Cannet, on the heights of Cannes, into an open-air stage every June 21. Music freely takes over public spaces: central squares, boulevards, and neighborhoods host concerts, choirs, and parades, from mid-afternoon until late evening.

Several stages throughout the city

The 2026 edition unfolds around two main poles, Place de la Libération and Place Foch, complemented by musical strolls in the different sectors of the commune. Genres coexist without hierarchy: general covers, French songs, choir repertoires, New Orleans jazz, Brazilian and funk vibes, before a big karaoke and DJ evening to close the celebration.
