25th edition

July 15 to 25, 2025

A quarter-century of shared musical emotions under the sky of the Graves vineyards!

Twenty-five summers where great music has resonated in the most beautiful châteaux and concert halls of this unique land, weaving a shared history between artists, audiences, and heritage.

From July 15 to 25, join us in celebrating this remarkable anniversary. We are not just marking a date, but honoring the soul of a festival and its music academy, now an essential part of cultural life in Gironde.

Our long-standing partners—magnificent estates such as Domaine de Chevalier, Châteaux Latour-Martillac, Bouscaut, Carbonnieux, Châteaux de France and Rochemorin, along with the Maison des Vins des Graves—are ready to welcome music lovers. This year, we will also take a special trip to the Médoc at the prestigious Château Branaire-Ducru.

Our philosophy remains unchanged since our inception: to create a dialogue between exceptional music and extraordinary venues, with an artistic standard accessible to all. From international soloists to emerging talents, from iconic masterpieces to contemporary creations, we cultivate this alchemy that creates unforgettable musical moments.

This 25th edition will be generous, bold, and welcoming! Our program will take you on a musical journey through timeless classical works and surprising discoveries, performed by outstanding artists—including former students of our academy who are now celebrated on international stages. Among our distinguished guests, we are honored to welcome our Honorary President, the legendary violinist Maxim Vengerov, as well as the talented pianist and composer Thomas Enhco.

Musique en Graves is, above all, a human adventure: musicians, passionate volunteers, loyal partners, and enthusiastic audiences. This anniversary is dedicated to all of you.

Come and celebrate our 25th anniversary from July 15 to 25 with a truly memorable edition. Twenty-five summers—it’s the perfect age to celebrate life in all its splendor!

Breathe in the summer, taste a fine wine on its terroir, and let your mind wander with music!
