About Music Festival in Menton
Every June 21, Menton celebrates the Fête de la Musique: amateurs, local groups, emerging artists, and confirmed musicians make the city's squares, alleys, and gardens vibrate to the rhythm of live music. Organized by the City of Menton, the day is entirely free and open to all styles, in a spirit of sharing and discovery.
The Fête de la Musique in Menton
As everywhere in France since 1982, the Fête de la Musique transforms the city of Menton into an open-air stage every June 21. Music freely takes over public spaces, from the squares of the historic center to the seaside gardens, in all genres and for all audiences.
A celebration spread across the city's squares and gardens
For the 2026 edition, the City of Menton will make its squares, alleys, and emblematic places resonate with the rhythm of concerts. Several spaces will host participating artists, from the city center to the seafront: Place Kœnig, Place de l'hôtel de ville, Jardin du Campanin, Jardin Biovès (upper and lower), Jardin Elisée Reclus, Esplanade des Sablettes, and Esplanade du Musée Jean Cocteau.
All musical styles will coexist throughout the day, from amateurs to confirmed musicians, in a spirit of conviviality and artistic discovery. City bars and restaurants traditionally extend the celebration onto their terraces.
