Bastille Day 🇫🇷 Fête du 14 juillet
Bastille Day, celebrated annually on July 14, is the French national holiday that commemorates the storming of the Bastille fortress in 1789 - a pivotal uprising that helped spark the French Revolution.
It also honors the Fête de la Fédération of 1790, which celebrated the unity of the French people.
🎊
Known in France as le 14 juillet (the Fourteenth of July) or la fête nationale, the day is traditionally marked by elaborate festivities. In Paris, it features the oldest and largest regular military parade in Europe held along the Champs-Élysées, culminating with spectacular fireworks over the Eiffel Tower.
