FÊTE DE LA MUSIQUE 2026 :
From 11 a.m. to 10:45 p.m., Arles turns into an open-air stage. The day begins on boulevard des Lices with the festive sounds of Viagem Samba, before music spreads across the city: children’s workshops, local choirs, 60s and 70s rock, DJ sets, Latin rhythms and gipsy music.
The evening highlight is “ABBA FOR EVER”, a free tribute concert on place de la République, offered by the City of Arles.
The celebration continues on June 19 and 20 with the Conservatory Days, featuring jazz, tango, piano, percussion, choirs and collective creations in iconic venues such as the Jardin d’Été, the Théâtre antique and the Espace Van Gogh.
• One city
• Music everywhere
• Voices, guitars, turntables
• And Arles dancing into the night
