This is one of the best French festivals to catch as a tourist. It’s free, it’s everywhere and everyone is invited. Literally the ‘Music Day’, this is how the French welcome the summer solstice. Expect sounds and performances across all genres – at street corners, cosy bar gigs, restaurants with live music or an all-out concert venue – you can catch professional and amateur acts in the setting of your choice. Did you know, other countries have taken inspiration from this festival and now have their own!
Traveller’s tip: Louvre, Jardin des Tuileries and the Seine are the most renowned locations to experience this festival.
