The tradition has been the same every year for several decades: in January, the town of Rambouillet elects its new Queen of the Lily of the Valley and her two runners-up, to represent the town and, more broadly, the youth of Rambouillet during their year of reign.
Celebrated each year during the Fête du Muguet in Rambouillet, in the Yvelines department, the Queen of the Lily of the Valley parades on a float with her two runners-up: in anticipation of this great moment, a special evening is organized to elect the Queen of the Lily of the Valley 2025, this Saturday, January 25. Combining a gala dinner with a performance by the candidates for the title of Lily of the Valley Queen, the Nuit du Muguet is a not-to-be-missed event on the Rambolitan calendar every year!
The Reine du Muguet de Rambouillet will then be able to take part in the regional Miss Île-de-France competition - or at least in the various selection stages. Further details of the evening's programme are still to be announced: in the meantime, you can contact the Mairie to find out more about how to register (for both the competition and the evening).
