Meet the 2025 winners of the Best Paris Baguette Award
If there is one thing French people are really serious about, it is most likely bread. Baking is almost an art in France. The baguette has even been granted World Heritage Status by UNESCO. For Parisian bakers, the top honour is to win the Best Paris Baguette Award. The 2025 competition featured 187 bakers from the French capital. Their creations were judged by a jury made up of Deputy Paris Mayor Nicolas Bonnet-Oulaldj, representatives of major professional federations, journalists and four randomly selected Parisians. Judges of this 32nd edition assessed the competing baguettes based on five criteria: appearance, taste, baking quality, crumb and honeycombing. This year's lucky winners are Mickaël Reydellet and Florian Bléas, of the aptly-named La Parisienne boulangerie. Reydellet created his first shop in 2006 and now manages nine bakeries, seven of them in Paris and two in his native Normandy. 'I'm very proud of the teams, because behind this competition is the day-to-day work of the whole staff, and this is not to be overlooked', he told Euronews Culture. Reydellet had already won the contest in 2016. In the past nine years, he worked endlessly to improve his product, despite external challenges like the Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine. 'Wheat harvests change each year. We have to adapt our recipes each time to take this into account ', he explained. 'That's the art of baking.' Like every recipient of the Best Paris Baguette prize, Reydellet and Bléas will have the privilege of delivering their bread to the Élysée Palace during a year. But for him, the French President is a client like any other. 'It's always very interesting to be able to go into the Élysée Palace and serve the most prestigious tables. But we take great care over every single one of our products', Reydellet said. 'Whether it's the President or just another client, we really try to do our job well, and that's what pays off.' Artisans at La Parisienne are no strangers to awards. Reydellet's colleague Mathieu Leveque also won the Best Paris Pastry prize this year, and Aziz Boussaidi earned second place at the contest for the best croissant in the region. After completing its own independent tasting, Euronews Culture can say that Bléas and Reydellet's baguette is a worthy winner. It also largely passes the "Ratatouille" test. As explained by the character of Colette in the 2007 animated Pixar film, a good bread can be recognised by the way its crust sounds. La Parisienne's baguette offers a "symphony of crackle. Only great bread sounds this way.'

What is Fête de La Musique, France's annual solstice celebration?
The Summer Solstice of June 21— the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere — also heralds France's beloved music festival, the Fête de la Musique, which is marking its 44th year. Amid the heat, streets, bars, restaurants, gardens, museums and even libraries across France will host thousands of concerts for one night only. From classical to techno to jazz and rap, the line-up features a mix of renowned artists and bands, including La Femme, Romain Pissenem, Major Lazer Sound System, and Abd al Malik — some of the many artists that will perform at the Olympic Cauldron, which will be re-lit for the first time since the Olympic Games. In every corner of the city, artists from around the globe — from Brazil to Cambodia — will be present, bringing music for every taste. Alongside these headliners, amateurs and street performers from across the country will also take the stage. Many of the events are organised by town halls as well as by local associations, shops, schools and neighbourhood cafés. The full lineup for concerts in Paris can be found here while the full lineup for all of France is available on the government website. Millions have attended in previous years, with some traveling from outside of France to join the festivities. This year, Beyoncé will also be performing for three days over the weekend at the Stade de France, attracting even more music lovers to Paris. Social media, especially TikTok, is buzzing with foreigners, mostly British, eager to join the celebration. Many are sharing tips on how to celebrate the event and even practicing their French. The Paris transport system will offer a special 'Fête de la Musique' pass for €4.20 which provides unlimited access to all public transportation (except to airports) from 5pm on June 21 until 7am on June 22. The fête this year fortuitously falls on a weekend – the next Summer Solstice to take place on a Saturday will be in 2031— but is also expected to coincide with a heatwave that could see Paris temperatures soar to around 35°C (95°F). Musical origins Former minister of culture Jack Lang launched the first Fête de la Musique in 1982. A ministry survey conducted that year found that around 5 million French citizens played an instrument — including half of all young people. Lang decided to create this free festival as a way to break down the barriers between amateur and professional musicians. The idea of the free festival was to be open to all music, 'without hierarchy of genres or practices'. Some credit Joel Cohen, an American musician working at France Musique public radio, as the originator of the idea of a musical solstice. In 1976 Cohen launched the 'Saturnales de La Musique', a special broadcast to celebrate the solstices on June 21 and December 21 with music. The European Year of Music in 1985 set its sights on exporting the celebration abroad, and by 1997 a charter on 'La Fête Européenne de la Musique' was signed in Budapest. Thousands of cities around the world now celebrate Fête de la Musique, which means 'Music Party' in French but is also a play on words since 'Faites de la musique' — meaning 'to make music' — is pronounced the same way. Organisers underscore that the event is "for all music and all audiences without any lucrative purposes".
