The Garonne River is a major river in southwestern France that flows through Toulouse in the Haute-Garonne department. Every summer, a free concert is organized along the river banks, under the trees, and close to the city center. The program usually includes a variety of musical styles, ranging from classical to jazz, bluegrass, and world music. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs or blankets and enjoy the music while sipping a glass of wine or eating a picnic. The atmosphere is further enhanced by the presence of local artists who paint live and by the breathtaking views of the river and the city.
