Bastille Festival, La Fête Nationale in London
Bastille Festival, London’s largest free celebration of La Fête Nationale, will take Bankside by storm on Sunday 14th July. You’ll be able to celebrate France’s national day for free with an extravaganza of all things French in and around one of London’s most historic food markets, Borough Market.
This year’s fun filled programme of free activities includes a traditional 14th July Waiters’ Race, Pétanque, snail racing, creative workshops, party games, bi-lingual storytelling, face painting and gastronomic film screenings! There will also be free promenading tours, street theatre performances and live music. Local bars and restaurants will be offering wine and spirit sampling and Borough Market’s demonstration kitchen will be cooking up a storm for festival goers to try for free.
If you have never been to Bankside before, Bastille Festival is the day to try it out for less. Exclusive Bastille Day discounts will be available in several Bankside attractions including The Clink and the London Bridge Experience.
