Please remember to stay hydrated during these hot summer days, BYOD. About Fete de Musique Each year, over 1,000 cities throw citywide music celebrations around the summer solstice. It started 40+ years ago in France, when the Ministry of Culture imagined a day where free, live music would be everywhere: street corners and parks, rooftops and gardens, storefronts, and mountaintops. Unlike a typical music festival, anyone and everyone would be invited to join and play music and host performances. It’s called Fête de la Musique. In French, the name means both “festival of music” and “make music!” The Georgetown BID and the Embassy of France-Villa Albertine are partnering to host the 2024 Fête de la Musique – World Music Day on Friday, June 21 – the first-ever edition in the commercial district of Georgetown. Dozens of musical acts will perform in locations throughout Georgetown (5 pm – 8 pm), or at one of three stages at La Maison Française. (5 pm – 10 pm). Music and performance genres include R&B, Americana, jazz, bluegrass, spoken word, and rock. The full line-up will be announced soon!
