The Fête de la Musique was created on June 21, 1982, the day of the summer solstice, at the initiative of the Ministry of Culture who wanted to make it a festive, popular and spontaneous event for all audiences and to highlight amateur practices.

Free concerts, support from SACEM, support from local authorities, mobilization of numerous networks (amateur federations, local associations, music stages, music schools and conservatories, musical establishments, museums, concert halls, cafes, public or private companies) contribute to the dynamism of the event and its success.

Adapting to the cultural and musical specificities of each country, the event has gained much momentum abroad, it is carried by large metropolises like New York, Berlin or Mexico City. More than 120 countries around the world celebrate music on June 21.

Launched in 2021, the Band Plan and "amateur practice harmony" orchestras developed by the Ministry of Culture throughout the territory promotes the transmission of knowledge and the collective learning of music between the elders and the youngest. Building on its success in 2021 and 2022, the plan was renewed and expanded in 2023 to bolster the reach of musical businesses.
