The Fête de la Musique in Forbach
As everywhere in France since 1982, the Fête de la Musique transforms the center of Forbach into an open-air stage every June 21. Music freely takes over public spaces, from afternoon until evening, across all genres and for all audiences: a convivial moment with family or friends in the heart of the city.
A festival throughout the city center
Typically, the event unfolds across several stages in the center: the forecourt of the Hôtel de Ville, Place Aristide Briand, the theater forecourt, and the La Syna space. Open-air concerts, musical strolls, and on-site catering punctuate the day, while the upper town and its shopkeepers extend the festive atmosphere.
