The port of Calais, famous for its old quarters and its modern Hotel de Ville with magnificent clock tower, is also a musical centre of the North of France. This year it has organised a music festival lasting from June until September, and invitations have been sent to all the brass bands of Belgium and France to compete for prizes totalling 45,000 francs. The competition is also open to accordion bands, of which there are a number in the North of France and in Belgium.
