The story

Solidays in Paris

Solidays, organized since 1999 by the French HIV/AIDS charity Solidarite Sida, combines a substantial June music festival at the ParisLongchamp racecourse in the Bois de Boulogne with conferences, prevention information stands and food trucks integrated directly into the grounds. Ticket proceeds fund HIV and AIDS programs in France and abroad, giving the festival's pop, hip-hop, electronic and rock lineup a specific charitable and public health mission beyond entertainment alone.

Solidays has been organized every year since 1999 by Solidarite Sida, a French HIV/AIDS charity, making it one of the few major European music festivals built explicitly around a specific public health and advocacy mission rather than pure entertainment.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Solidays' defining feature is its direct charitable structure: rather than a festival that occasionally donates proceeds, it is organized every year specifically by Solidarite Sida, with ticket and merchandise revenue funding HIV and AIDS programs in France and internationally, and prevention information stands integrated directly into the festival grounds rather than segregated to a separate area

02

The mystery stays covered

This combination of a substantial, genre-spanning music lineup with genuine public health advocacy woven into the attendee experience is uncommon among major European summer festivals, most of which operate on a purely commercial basis
