🎦 Watch our short video on the origins and traditions of Bastille Day:
Bastille Day in Paris is an unforgettable day with a giant military parade on the Champs-Élysées, spectacular fireworks at the Eiffel Tower and many picnics organised in the many districts and arrondissements in the city.
From the summit of the Arc de Triomphe, we observed that the markings have already been painted on the street for the military parade:
At the Place de la Concorde, the official gallery is already ready. This is where the French President will take sit to preside over the giant military parade (here seen from the Tuileries Garden):
Soon the avenue hundreds of tricolour flags will decorate des Champs-Élysées…
And a gigantic French flag will be attached under the arches of the Arc de Triomphe:
A large unit of police forces will be deployed during the events to avoid potential threats and offer security to the masses of visitors gathered along the avenue.
