13 July in La Frette-sur-Seine (95): fireworks canceled, dance party kept for Bastille Day

La Frette-sur-Seine makes for a festive July 13, 2026, on the occasion of Bastille Day! The town in Val-d’Oise (95) is rolling out a lively program: the fireworks display has been canceled, but the rest of the animations are maintained.

Due to a prefectural decree, many fireworks displays are forbidden in the Val-d'Oise department because of the high risk of wildfires. Consequently, the Frette-sur-Seine fireworks show on July 13, 2026 has been cancelled, but the rest of the program remains as planned.

Bastille Day Fête Nationale on July 14 is fast approaching! Between fireworks streaking across the sky, the popular dances that get crowds moving, and the parades pounding the pavement, the celebration arrives everywhere. In Paris, the Champs-Élysées becomes the stage for the traditional military parade, before the Eiffel Tower erupts in a spectacular fireworks display that electrifies the night. In the region, many municipalities opt to hold their festivities the eve.

In the Val-d’Oise (95), Frette-sur-Seine is also leaning into the celebrations on July 13, 2026, the eve of a public holiday. Between twinkling lanterns, lively concerts and sparks, the town invites young and old to light up the festivities and let the evening resonate, with family or friends.

Nicknamed "the Pearl of Val-d'Oise," this charming hillside town has long attracted a host of Impressionist painters. Visitors can stroll along the Seine riverfront promenade, enjoying a sweeping view of the water, admire Saint-Nicolas Church, a picturesque landmark perched above the river with roots tracing back to the 12th century, or trace the footsteps of illustrious artists like Albert Marquet and Paul Cézanne, living memory-makers of this winegrowers' village.
