Bastille Day French Festival

Get ready to swap your beanie for a beret and rendezvous at the iconic Queen Victoria Market Sheds C & D on Saturday 13 and Sunday 14 July for the annual Bastille Day French Festival. Everyone's favourite celebration of all things French and Francophone in Melbourne is back in 2024 and we can’t wait to transport you to a classic wintry French town square and celebrate the French National Day across a range of activities.

There is something for everyone at this year’s Festival – from a French Winter Market packed with local French - Australian businesses and mouth - watering French and Francophone cuisine, to dazzling artists and performers, to a cultural program filled with Les Lumières talks, Walking Tours and interactive masterclasses - all right in the heart of Melbourne! We will also have our Online Program in full swing so if you can’t join us in person, don’t worry, join us online for a range of live crosses to France, in conversations, musical delights and more! Rendezvous in person or online and join in the joie de vivre.

À bientôt au Festival.
