Dresden celebrates the Fête de la Musique: worldwide sounds on June 21!

The start of the calendar took place on June 21, and like every year this day coincided with the eagerly awaited Fête de la Musique - an international music festival that connects people from all over the world. The Institut Français Dresden took over the organization of the celebrations in Dresden and put on a varied program.

In recent years, this festival has developed strongly and has now been found in over 1000 cities worldwide, with Germany being involved with more than 140 event locations, as the Official website . This year, the partnership between Dresden and Strasbourg, which has existed since 1990, offered a special setting: musicians from both cities were directly connected to promote cultural exchange.

artistic encounters

A highlight of the Fête de la Musique in Dresden was the appearance of the Dresden band "Wicked Waste", which was allowed to play in Strasbourg. At the same time, the band "Almost Rose" made the Dresden Neustadt unsafe and presented their music in the Kukulida cultural association, which served as an event location for the celebrations. The opening time was at 7 p.m. and offered both professionals and amateurs the opportunity to give their talent to the best. This open option makes the Fête a special experience for every music lover.

music across borders

The roots of the Fête de la Musique go back to 1982 when the then French Minister of Culture Jack Lang launched the festival to celebrate the joy of music and bring people together. The objective remains the same to this day: to offer a large number of musical performances, from small street concerts to large stage shows. We also find this philosophy at the planned hip hop block party in Paris, which will take place from June 21 to 22, how Sortir à paris reported.

The hip hop block party is held in the 11th arrondissement and is all about dance and vinyl. With a DJ line-up that extends from well-known sizes such as DJ Real C and DJ Foxybee to the Easystyle Sound System, the party is a must for hip-hop fans. There is also a street aperitif that invites you to socialize.

whether in Dresden or Paris, the Fête de la Musique brings people together and ensures a unique atmosphere that will certainly continue to grow in the coming years. These special events are not only a celebration of music, but also strengthen the cultural connections between different cities and countries.
