LateRooms.com reports the Fête de la Musique is all set to blow your socks off when it opens in Paris on June 21st, with all manner of music being played by professionals and amateurs alike.

What the organisers hope to achieve is for everyone to share a "special moment though music" in a cheerful atmosphere, which may be just the ticket for guests at hotels in Paris looking for something unique and exciting to enjoy.

It is free to attend - with all performers asked to carry out their acts without payment - and there will be concerts taking place is unusual locations such as castles, train stations and museums.

The Fête de la Musique was launched in 1982 by the French Government and takes place in more than one hundred countries internationally on the summer solstice.

"It aims at a large audience, working to popularise musical practice for young and not so young people from all social backgrounds," explained the organisers.

The programme for the event will be published in June, but people can expect to see all sorts of genres of music, with What's on When revealing that established acts often get involved.

There is even a postage stamp dedicated to the success of the Fête de la Musique, which was brought out in 1998, according to the travel site.
