In France, July 14th is a day like no other: it's Bastille Day. For the occasion, the country comes alive with traditional celebrations including fire department balls, fireworks displays and the military parade down the Champs-Elysées in Paris. It promises to be a busy day for all those who want to enjoy the festivities. In Paris, all eyes are on the iconic fireworks display from the Eiffel Tower, but the rest of the region is also involved in the ballet of pyrotechnic shows.
That's right, in the inner suburbs and beyond, many towns in the Île-de-France region are unveiling some great programs for July 14th , often including fireworks!
