As Bastille Day approaches, all of France is in a festive mood, and for good reason: it marks the country’s National Holiday. On this date that commemorates, among other things, the storming of the Bastille, traditional celebrations sweep the country with a grand display of fireworks, military parades, public dances and other festive activities to delight young and old.
In Paris, two iconic highlights await: the military parade and the firework over the Eiffel Tower, set off this year the night before D-day, on the evening of July 13. The rest of the region is also in celebration, with traditional activities spread between the 13 and 14 July ahead. In Seine-Saint-Denis, the city of Bagnolet, located in the inner suburbs and within easy reach of the metro, is keen to join the festivities and unveils its program for this Bastille Day 2026.
Once again, Bagnolet is inviting you on July 13, 2026 to celebrate the National Day in style, that is to say with a magnificent and traditional fireworks display. Children of all ages will be spellbound from nightfall, that’s for sure.
The final fireworks display at the Briqueterie Sports Park will light up the Bagnolet sky as night falls.
