Johannesburg – We love live music as well as the French and are excited the annual Fete de la Musique is back soon?
It’s great to enjoy the summer sun after weeks under Lockdown and even more exciting to be partying up a storm at the Fete de la Musique Joburg which is brought to you the French Institute of South Africa, Alliance Francaise with Bassline and Newtown.
“We missed it last year because of covid 19 and are excited for the announcement of the line up as well as the fact that the most anticipated experiences amongst avid festival goers will be back in four different locations with limited capacity to ensure safety while making live music accessible for all and giving young musicians a space to reach a larger audience,” says the Cultural Attaché for the French Embassy, Selen Daver.
