Born in 2006 in the courtyard of the Château de Solliès-Pont, and organized in Le Pradet since 2015, the Festival Musique à la Cour takes place from August 18 to 23 at the Espace des Arts.
Since its arrival in Pradetan land, the event has continued to evolve to adapt to the tastes of spectators of all ages who love classical music and the piano.
The secrets of such enthusiasm? An intimate and comfortable setting, a Steinway D piano on stage, high quality acoustics, a meeting between virtuosos and enthusiasts. And an attractive price that has not changed since 2006, thanks to the involvement of the festival’s partners (City of Pradet, Department and Metropolis). On display, as every year, piano of course, but also chamber music.
