The Department of Tourism (DOT) invites everyone to plug back into a festive musical mood and partake in the Fête de la Musique 2021, one of the many virtual and hybrid festivals organized by the DOT this year as it adapts to the ongoing global pandemic. Fête de la Musique Philippines 2021 is set across various cities and provinces in the Philippines featuring both local and international acts from diverse genres of music. Dubbed as #FeteFromMyIsland, the virtual event will showcase Original Pilipino Music (OPM) legends and local musical artists from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. It will also highlight performances from French artists and other foreign acts who share the same passion for music, arts, and culture. #FeteFromMyIsland will not only take its audience on a nationwide musical journey, but it will also bring a visual feast. It will feature the country’s natural beauty, rich culture, and captivating sceneries from popular tourist destinations such as Boracay, El Nido, La Union, and Metro Manila.

“We are truly happy and excited to be able to host the Fete de la Musique once again. As the world knows, music is a huge part of Filipino culture, and we can never pass up any opportunity to celebrate through songs. Even though there are still community quarantines in the country, this online music festival allows people to ‘travel’ and revel in the wonders of the Philippines through the incomparable musical talents of Filipinos,” said Tourism Secretary Bernadette Romulo-Puyat.
