The Fête de la Musique in Saint-Paul
As everywhere in France since 1982, the Fête de la Musique transforms the city into an open-air stage every June 21. In Saint-Paul, the largest commune in La Réunion, music freely takes over public spaces in the late afternoon and evening, reaching all audiences and all genres.
A festival spread throughout the commune
As the Saint-Paul territory is vast, the festival is not concentrated in a single spot: several stages are simultaneously set up in the city center and in the neighborhoods, from the coast to the upper areas. The Débarcadère and the seafront host the main events, extended by local stages in Plateau-Caillou, l'Hermitage, Boucan, Bois-de-Nèfles, and in the outlying areas.
The program highlights local talents — amateur artists, emerging groups, and passionate musicians — featuring music from the Indian Ocean (maloya, séga, seggae) and more widely shared styles (reggae, pop, variety).
