Fête de la Musique in Yerres

The Fête de la Musique in Yerres: June 21st in celebration in the city center

Every June 21st, the town of Yerres (91330) celebrates summer and music during its Fête de la Ville, a big festive and free day organized by the municipality in the city center. In this commune of Essonne, deeply linked to the work of the Impressionist painter Gustave Caillebotte, this event annually brings together residents, families, and friends around music and conviviality.

A family day in the heart of the city center

The festival unfolds in the city center of Yerres, around rue du Général de Gaulle, the Mairie (Town Hall), and the CEC. From the afternoon until late into the night, the program includes:

• Numerous activities and attractions for children and families
• Wandering artists (brass bands, orchestras, balloon sculptors)
• A choreographic meeting bringing together local dance associations at the CEC
• Pop-up food stalls (food trucks and city center merchants)
• An open-air concert to conclude the evening

A concert evening to close the festival

The day traditionally ends with an open-air concert evening, free and open to all, featuring bands with festive sounds that get audiences of all generations dancing.The CEC — Théâtre de Yerres

The Centre de l'Espace Culturel (CEC) of Yerres is the main cultural stage of the city. It offers an ambitious program throughout the year and participates in the Fête de la Ville by notably hosting the choreographic meeting of dance associations.Yerres and its Impressionist heritage

Yerres is an exceptional town due to its Impressionist heritage. The Caillebotte Property, with its green park, boathouse, and shaded alleys, is one of the most precious testimonies of bourgeois life at the end of the 19th century in Île-de-France. The Caillebotte Festival, organized every summer, highlights this heritage.
