During the summer months, the border Festival celebrates music in Bristol. Concerts take place on a regular basis along State street and everyone is on the occasion of a good BBQ.

Each year in February begins the jazz season in San Francisco. It extends to the end of June with concerts throughout the city that attract enthusiasts like beginners.

Summerfest is the largest music festival in the United States and the^3rd largest in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records. It has grown in popularity and in recent years has attracted visitors from all over Wisconsin and the Great Lakes region. Famous artists have performed there, from Tina Turner to the Rolling Stones. The festival is held at the Henry Maier Festival Park on Lake Michigan. In addition to the concerts, the festivities include food booths and various attractions (including a Harley-Davidson test drive).

Electro still holds an important place in New York thanks to the Electric Zoo festival, launched in 2009. All the greatest DJs and electro artists in the world gather at the beginning of September to get 150,000 fans dancing for three days. Now a fixture on the electro scene, the festival was the target of criticism in 2013 following the death of two festival-goers by overdose. The last day of the festival had finally been cancelled by the organizers at the request of the town hall. The line-up is still quite exceptional.

The Governor's Ball has established itself as one of the most important festivals in the United States. Every year, we find the greatest rock, folk, electro and hip-hop artists. Kanye West, Jack White, Outkast, Interpol, Phoenix, Beck, Kid Cudi, Guns N' Roses or the Strokes followed one another on stage. The festival lasts three days and the music starts at noon. No hipster atmosphere as in Coachella (California), but a thrilling atmosphere for the 12,000 spectators.
