Entitled Tara Allez! or “let’s go!” in both colloquial Filipino (tara) and French (allez), Fête features new and exciting collaborations between artists from the Philippines & France, made possible by Alliance Francaise de Manille and the Department of Tourism. This is also in commemoration of the 75th anniversary of Franco-Phil bilateral relations.
For 2022, Fête de la Musique aims to provide generous French-Filipino cross-cultural exchange while also harnessing the healing power of music, forging new friendships, and building & supporting communities.
