Killarney Heights FANS World Music Day 2025
Killarney Heights FANS World Music Day 2025 - Celebrating Music, Community, and Culture
June, 2025On June 22, 2025, the school grounds of Killarney Heights Public School came alive with rhythm and song for World Music Day, or Fête de la Musique - a French tradition celebrating the universal language of music. Organised by FANS (Friends & Families of KHPS), the event united local families, students, and music lovers for an evening of live performances, food, and community spirit. Booth Me Up was thrilled to be part of the celebration, bringing an open-air photo booth to capture the day's smiles, laughter, and connection.
About Fête de la Musique
Originating in France in 1982, Fête de la Musique (World Music Day) is an annual music celebration held around the summer solstice, where musicians and citizens fill the streets and parks with song. What started in Paris - initiated by French Minister of Culture Jack Lang and composer Maurice Fleuret - has grown into a global phenomenon celebrated in over 120 countries.
This year, FANS brought that same energy to the Northern Beaches, transforming the Killarney Heights school grounds into a lively outdoor concert space where everyone could join the rhythm.
