Music in every street, people dancing and singing, moments of joy: there's no doubt about it, the Fête de la Musique is back in Paris on Saturday June 21, 2025! A not-to-be-missed cultural rendezvous, this festival transforms the entire capital into a giant concert hall, allowing anyone with an artistic soul to sing or play an instrument, for better... And sometimes for worse.

However, there's no risk of hearing the wrong notes at the Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine. The Parisian museum, located on the Place du Trocadéro, also welcomes artists to vibrate to the rhythm of this popular festival. On June 21, 2025, the Cité de l'architecture will open its doors free of charge to all music lovers and the curious, for a musical evening full of surprises...

If you're not familiar with this art and culture museum, now's your chance to find out. The Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine is a rather unique museum. Attached to the Ministry of Culture, its aim is to promote French architecture and heritage, both in France and abroad, while exhibiting emblematic pieces of French architectural heritage and contemporary creations.
