Rabat is hosting musical events focused on cultural fusion and diversity. On September 25, 2026, the Villa des Arts will host a free concert by Remork & Karkaba, a collaboration between a Brussels-based brass band and a Moroccan Gnawa music training program. This partnership blends Belgian brass melodies with traditional rhythms such as Gnawa, raï, and chaâbi.

Additionally, the European Union, Morocco’s Ministry of Youth, Culture, and Communication, and the Wilaya of the Rabat-Salé-Kénitra region are organizing a musical festival to promote cultural dialogue. The festival features diverse international acts, including the Portuguese Amara Quartet performing contemporary fado with Moroccan percussionist Khalid Kouhen, the Franco-German sextet Thérapie de Couple, and the Herak-Bulatkin Quartet, which combines Slavic, Romani, and Balkan traditions.
