In Villejuif, the Fête Nationale takes place all day long on July 13, 2024! The highlight of the event is undoubtedly the grand bal populaire, followed, of course, by a fireworks display at 11pm. But it's also possible to get together as early as lunchtime to enjoy some great entertainment for the whole family. Once again, the venue is the Parc Départemental des Hautes-Bruyères!
From early morning until after 11pm, the park is open to all. Various free events for young and old are organized to mark this great national holiday. The park is also open to picnickers.
From 6 p.m., things get serious with a DJ aperitif-restaurant with the town's associations. Then it's on to the grand bal populaire, with live bands! Soul, funk, rock, variety and pop music will get you dancing! And of course, the day ends with the inevitable fireworks display, starting at 11pm. This year's theme is, of course, the Olympic Games.
To enter the park, strict security measures are in place from the morning. It is forbidden to bring glass bottles, sharp or blunt objects, fireworks, firecrackers, as well as cans and closed plastic bottles (they must be opened).
It's a festive, free day not to be missed!
