Garden Party
A festive musical day, open to everyone, blending concerts, nature, and shared moments.
On Sunday, June 21, the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel invites you to celebrate the arrival of the summer at its traditional Garden Party, a warm, joyful, and intergenerational music festival.
Set in the lush green surroundings of the Music Chapel, this edition marks a unique moment with the opening of the Argenteuil Estate to our public – a first not to be missed, in the heart of a remarkable natural environment.
Throughout the day, enjoy a varied and accessible program for all:
🎵 outdoor and indoor concerts
🌿 family-friendly activities and discoveries
👨👩👧👦 entertainment, relaxation, food & drinks, and convivial moments for all ages
Designed as a true escape for sharing and enjoyment, the Garden Party combines pleasure, discovery, and sustainable commitment, with respect for its environment– without ever compromising on the quality of its welcome and staying true to its very essence: artistic excellence.
