For August 15, the Nocturnes de Feu showcase the gardens of the Château de Versailles, lit up by thousands of candles, in honor of the royal fireworks, so dear to the history of Versailles. Since the 18th century, pyrotechnic shows projected over water, to the sound of grandiose music, have captivated kings and crowds alike.

You'll be able to stroll freely through the flowerbeds of the formal gardens, greeted by candles. To immerse you in this luminous evening, Versailles will provide baroque musical accompaniment by Lully, Handel, Gluck and Rameau.
