fête de la musique (festival of music)

Annually on the longest day of the year
With sunrise at abt 530am 
and the sun sets abt 1030pm
Which is the offical day 1 of summer
There is fête de la musique in france

Basically streets are available for musicians,
Bands, choirs...
To perform for the public for free
I guess for some good locations or stage,
They have to reserve or be invited

Nevertheless,
Its a great idea to bring music to the public!
We are lucky that this year,
It happens on a saturday!
Although we didnt venture to central of paris
For the big concerts and parties
It was nice to walk around near home
Watching a concert
Choir in a garden
Dj spinning in another garden
Some bands playing along the walkway
Some bands inside bar

We wanted to spend only 3hours out
But ended up having a drink
And stay out till 12am
And there were still many bands etc going on
I think metro was free or extending hours

My first fête de la musique!
