This free open-air exhibition turns a stroll through royal gardens into a meditative journey where contemporary sculpture and historic landscape enter silent dialogue.

The 20th edition of this beloved free festival brings world music to the manicured grounds of Domaine national de Saint-Cloud. Five international acts perform across the weekend: desert blues fused with Italian folk, Argentine chamber music, African-contemporary blends, Arabic jazz, and Sunday evening gospel. Pack a picnic blanket, stake out a spot near the Bassin Saint-Jean, and let the sounds drift over you while families, couples, and solo wanderers all find their rhythm in the gardens.
