For the new Fête de la Musique, jazz is once again in the spotlight at the Sunset Sunside in Paris. On the program for this Saturday, June 21, 2025? A tribute to several legends of the musical genre.

Do you love music? Feel like celebrating it this year? The Fête de la Musique returns on Saturday, June 21, 2025 throughout France. In Paris and the Ile-de-France region, there will be plenty of musical events to choose from.

Every June 21, musicians, both amateur and professional, bring out their instruments and sing loud and clear to bring music to life, and to celebrate music at this now-famous popular and free event.

As always, all styles are represented: rock, pop, French variety, electro, classical music, rap, hip-hop, metal, reggae, blues and jazz. And if you're a jazz fan, we recommend a visit to Sunset Sunside, the must-see Parisian address in the center of the capital!

OnSaturday, June 21, 2025, Sunset Sunside invites you to experience a wonderful Fête de la Musique. This year, the legendary Paris jazz club invites you to (re)discover the musical repertoire of Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holiday and Nina Simone. For the occasion, Sunset Sunside welcomes Clémence de Tournemire Quartet for a series of tribute concerts scheduled at 6pm, 8pm and 10pm. All free of charge!

But that's not all, as Laurent Courthaliac Trio invites Hugo Lippi to pay tribute to the memory of Duke Ellington in three not-to-be-missed concerts, this time at 7pm, 9pm and 11pm.
