On the esplanade of the Pyramide du Louvre, music slips between two iconic images of Paris: the historic façades of the famous museum and the glass pyramid designed by Ieoh Ming Pei. The Sunday, June 21, 2026, this musical stop will set a pop-rock tone for the Fête de la Musique.
For more than four decades, this marquee event has taken concerts out of concert halls and into the streets, gardens, squares, museums, and heritage sites. The aim is to share music freely, in a wide range of formats, with artists ranging from amateurs to professionals.
The forecourt of the Pyramid sits at the heart of the Napoléon Court, within the grounds of the Louvre Palace. Before becoming one of the world’s most-visited museums, the Louvre was a medieval fortress, then a royal residence, and only became a museum after the French Revolution. The pyramid, for its part, is the more modern touch: it was erected in 1989.
Designed by architect Ieoh Ming Pei, it serves as the museum's main entrance. Its glass-and-metal structure contrasts with the palace's classical façades, a point of much discussion when it was unveiled. Over time, it has become one of the site's visual landmarks. For this Fête de la Musique 2026, it promises an iconic setting awaiting us!
