For Music Day 2026, Maison Jean-Paul Gaultier welcomes Shae BoogieDJ for an amapiano set dubbed The Howse That Boogie Built, on Sunday, June 21, 2026. An electro-dance appointment in Paris, blending deep bass, blazing percussion, and a couture spirit.

The Fête de la Musique returns on Sunday, June 21, 2026 with its infectious energy and an unwavering mission to make Paris groove. Born to give everyone free access to live music, this grand popular festival turns the capital into a playground of sound each year, from cultural venues to the most surprising spaces. For this new edition, the Maison Jean-Paul Gaultier steps into the spotlight with an electro rendezvous led by Shae BoogieDJ. On the menu: an amapiano set crafted to move the crowd and celebrate the arrival of summer in a festive, urban, and unmistakably stylish atmosphere.

The choice of Maison Jean-Paul Gaultier is far from incidental. Since 2005, housed in a 20th‑century former building, the label has taken over a spectacular venue refurbished to accommodate fashion-show salons, haute couture ateliers, fitting rooms, offices and creative studios. This building, known as the Palais du Prolétariat, has lived multiple lives before becoming the Parisian cradle of Gaultier’s universe. Between popular memory, Belle Époque architecture and couture audacity, it perfectly embodies the designer’s spirit: transforming what already exists, bending codes, and conjuring desire and freedom where they’re not always expected. For the Fête de la Musique, this history‑laden backdrop offers a rare setting for an evening tuned to rhythm and celebration.

Behind the turntables, Shae BoogieDJ is billed with The Howse That Boogie Built, a project designed as a open house for dance, bass and bodies in motion. As the organizer of nights of the same name, the artist serves up a repertoire centered on amapiano, the South African-born groove known for its smooth swing, syncopated percussion and deep bass lines. Why go? Because this music radiates immediate warmth, physical elegance and a powerful, unifying vibe. In the magnetic universe of Jean-Paul Gaultier, where fashion, nightlife and freedom converge, Shae BoogieDJ’s set promises a Fête de la Musique à Paris that is chic, sensual and utterly irresistible.
