On the first day of summer, Berlin celebrates the Fête de la Musique for the 33rd time. Musicians throughout the city take part in the celebration and perform their music for free.

Bonjour au Soleil! A greeting to the sun! To mark the start of summer, Berlin once again treats itself to plenty of music at the Fête de la Musique, the Festival of Music. This tradition, which originated in France, has been celebrated annually in Berlin since 1995. Amateurs and professionals of all musical genres are invited to showcase their talents in public, with free admission and no performance fees.

Live music all over the city

Thanks to a special permit for street music, acoustic performances will be allowed on public streets, squares and parks throughout Berlin on that day in June, provided they do not disturb facilities requiring protection, such as hospitals, schools or memorials. In 2027, there will be around 300 stages spread across the city.

History of the Fête de la Musique

The Fête de la Musique was founded by Jack Lang, the then French Minister of Culture in Paris in 1982. In the beginning the festival was a humble burst of musical idealism. Within three decades it became a global success and attracts players and listeners all over the world today.
