Les Femmes s'en Mêlent festival was established in Paris
on the 8th of March 1997 to address the underrepresentation
of female artists in music festivals.
Promoting exclusively female artists and their projects, the festival has featured over 500 musicians and composers (among others, Christine & The Queens, Cat Power, Jeanne Added, Emilie Simon, Soko, Yelle, Regina Spektor, Nouvelle Vague, Daphné, La Grande Sophie, Corine, Austra, Courtney Barnett, and Irène Drésel…).
In 24 years of existence, the festival has become a landmark in the musical industry, offering alternative programming choices across France and internationally (including cities like London, Madrid, Brussels, Lausanne, Geneva, Montreal, Berlin, and Warsaw).
