July 14 is a very special day in France, as it celebrates the Fête Nationale. So what's there to do? 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 in Paris is the military parade on the Champs-Elysées and the fireworks show from the Eiffel Tower, no less!
Another traditional festive celebration on July 14th: 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 2025 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, the Port-Royal fire station invites you to its firemen's ball on the evening of July 13, 2025 , from 9pm to 4am.
