Fanfare plan
A plan for bands and band bands.
The joint attention of the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Territorial Cohesion and Relations with Local Authorities on the subject of bands, In 2021 and 2022, a specific plan was developed in consultation with the four national partner federations:
- the French Sports and Cultural Federation,
- the French Confederation of Batteries and Bands,
- the Musical Confederation of France,
- and the Union des Fanfares de France.
The plan for bands and harmonies aims to promote an artistic and cultural practice that unites people of all ages and backgrounds around common musical projects.
These musical societies often participate in the various events organized by the municipalities and constitute a fabric of initiatives and expressions as close as possible to the territories, a gateway to musical awakening. They are sometimes the only cultural practices represented in rural areas.
In 2023, building on its success, this plan is renewed by the Ministry of Culture.
