The Main Stage is followed by pocket stages across Metro Manila, concentrated in but not limited to Makati and Quezon City, and the rest of the country, from June 20 to 28. The festival wraps up with a performance by Filipino jazz act Project Yazz at Raffles Makati’s Long Bar on June 29.
“Fête de la Musique has evolved into a true ‘community of communities,’ uniting artists and music lovers from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao,” said Alliance Française de Manille Executive Director Olivier Dintinger at the festival’s media launch on June 4. “This 32nd edition belongs entirely to the people. By keeping the festival completely free and expanding our footprint nationwide, we are celebrating not just the universal language of music, but the vibrant, community-led spirit that makes the Philippine music scene so extraordinary.”
Full artist lineups, specific pocket stage locations, and the complete nationwide schedule will be unveiled soon on Fête de la Musique Philippines’ official social media channels. Admission is free for all events, though some may require registration ahead of time.
