France's national holiday is officially celebrated on July 14. It's one of the high points of the summer, and with good reason: a host of festive and traditional events take place in every corner of the country! To the delight of young and old alike, the festivities take place at the bals populaires and bals des pompiers, and at nightfall, the sky is filled with fireworks.
Among the must-see celebrations on this public holiday are, of course, the impressive military parade down the Champs Elysées and the emblematic fireworks display from the Eiffel Tower. And while the capital is sure to attract plenty of attention on this festive day, the surrounding region is not to be outdone: all over the Île-de-France region, communes take it in turns to unveil their programs, generally spread over July 13 and 14, 2025.
If you’re in the 91 or simply looking to make the most of this public holiday by exploring the Essonne, why not swing by Viry-Châtillon ? Nestled south of Paris, this pleasant town reveals a rich heritage, with numerous historical elements that lend the place a touch of antiquity. For instance, the Saint-Denis washhouse, the Viry mill, the Vanne and Loing aqueduct, and the old Port-Aviation hotel.
It's a great way to enjoy the Fête Nationale 2025 festivities in Viry-Chatillon, on the forecourt of the Jacques-Bédei sports hall!
Join us from 7pm onwards on the forecourt of the Halle des Sports for children's entertainment:
Happy Fête Nationale 2025 to all!
