One
of my favorite holidays in France is Fête de la Musique (World Music Day) on
June 21st. It is a cultural
event started in 1982 of a music celebration to mark the beginning of the
summer solstice.
These popular and free festival events usually start from midday until midnight (I’ve attended some that go all night) and are held everywhere from local villages to the largest of cities. It would be hard not to stumble upon a musical get together on street corners, parks and in city squares.
If you get the chance to attend a Fête de la Musique event, do not hesitate. It’s like you can feel an atmospheric change surrounding these events that is unsurpassed. You will never see so many smiling, happy people in your life and it’s a perfect way to meet new friends.
And with those new friends, continue on with the party at various LGBT nightclubs as they hold special after hours events. It’s a night filled with fun and love.

The main celebrations will be held in Place du Pin on rue Bonaparte in Nice and are presented by the local LGBT Community Center and the Dolly Party Group who put on some of the best parties around France, this will be dance music central and expect to see thousands of people in attendance. |
The local gay and gay-friendly establishments that happen to be along rue Bonaparte such as: Malabar Station Cruising Bar, Gossip Bar and Pulp Fiction stay open and celebrate by extending their businesses right out on to the street to serve food and liquor making this an even more enticing hot spot. |
