recap of the concerts offered this Monday evening.

In Vence, in Menton and even in Nice, the municipalities have decided not to organize anything because of “strong sanitary constraints” but also to “leave” this event to bars and restaurants.

Indeed, the prefecture of the Alpes-Maritimes detailed last Friday the health protocol to be followed for the Music Festival despite the lifting of the curfew.

Crowds are prohibited, like “impromptu” concerts, only indoor concerts for amateur groups are allowed, so not on public roads.

A decree was also taken from Monday noon until Tuesday 8 am prohibiting "the sale, transport and consumption of alcohol on public roads, the distribution of amplified music on public roads" and also " the ban on the sale, possession and use of pyrotechnic articles ”.
