Fete de la musique on 21 June 2019 in Berlin

As every year, the beginning of summer will be heralded with the Fête de la Musique on June 21 in Berlin.

The Fête de la Musique is the festival of music in Berlin. But also for Europe and the world this day is of great importance as a global day of music and is celebrated in 340 cities. The idea was born in Paris in 1982 by the French Minister of Culture, Jack Lang. Beginning with a musical procession in 1995, the Fête de la Musique is now one of the most important and largest musical events in Berlin.

As every year, there will be many different venues throughout the city. The programme is varied and covers almost all genres. On this day, amateurs and professional musicians will be taking up their instruments and playing with body and soul for all spectators, demonstrating their love of music by performing even without a fee - that is, for all spectators to experience events of the Fête de la Musique free of charge. Not only Berlin's concert halls, bars and clubs are used as venues, but also all public streets, squares and green spaces. Whether with or without electricity and amplifiers - music is played anyway!

Every music lover gets his money's worth, because the full range is offered: from classical music, jazz, soul, blues, hip hop and reggae to pop, rock, punk and metal - of course a healthy portion of Berlin electro is not missing.
Hotspots of the event include the old town of Spandau, Revaler Straße in Friedrichshain, Karl-Marx-Allee, Unter den Linden, Rosa-Luxemburg Platz and of course the big stage in Mauerpark.

So there is really no excuse to miss this musical highlight!
