Yes, it's July 14 th for the troglodytes out there (sic).
Firemen's ball, military parade, accordions and Marseillaise in no particular order. :)

The best part of the parade is, as always, the Legion.

Pity we didn't keep our King's German Legion.  :(



The republican guard and some of the North African 'inspired' units are also rather good.

Classical and lyrical music concert in the Champ de Mars (Eiffel Tower park) ending with a Marseillaise sung by Roberto Alagna then very rock 'n roll fireworks this year with 'Keep on rockin' in the Free world' in the middle of a Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité / Bleu Blanc Rouge light and sound show :D  :frog:
