EUROPEAN MUSIC DAY 2025, Multiple venues, Chania Saturday 21.06
The Municipality of Chania plans to participate, as every year, in the European Music Festival, which will be officially celebrated on Saturday, June 21. The European Music Festival is under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture & Sports.
In 1982, on June 21 – a symbolic date due to the summer solstice – at the initiative of the then French Minister of Culture Jack Lang and the support of the French Ministry of Culture, the Music Festival was celebrated in France for the first time, with the aim of bringing “all the musicians out into the streets”. Since then, the years have passed and hopefully, by 2025, we will “take” the streets again with lots of music, organizing events and workshops in the city with free admission for the public.
