July 14 is a very special day in France, as it celebrates the Fête Nationale. So what can you do to mark the occasion? In Paris and the Ile-de-France region, there's a whole host of festivities in store, including popular balls, concerts, original entertainment, fireworks displays and military parades. The highlight of the evening in Paris is the fireworks show fired from the Eiffel Tower, no less!
Another traditional July 14th festive celebration: the Bals des Pompiers! Every year, the doors of some fire stations open to let us enjoy a festive evening into the wee hours. The brigade des Sapeurs-Pompiers de Paris answers the call for this Fête Nationale 2024 and invites us to party in their company. It's a great opportunity to celebrate July 14th in a festive way, while paying tribute to the firefighters for their services throughout the year.
In the 13th arrondissement of Paris, there will be not one but two bals des pompiers on the evening of July 13, 2024, from 9pm to 4am. The 2nd and 19th companies will be on hand at the Caserne Massena, while the 3rd company will be at the Caserne de Port-Royal.
