No 14th of July without the traditional firemen’s balls!
The 14th of July balls in Paris, as in all of France, are a timeless tradition, to the delight of all. These balls take place either on July 13 or July 14.
The balls of July 14 (and also of July 13!) are numerous. There are firemen’s balls and popular balls. Each Parisian arrondissement organizes its ball. While some are free, firemen’s balls are usually paid or barrels are set up to receive your donations. In any case, this is a low-cost outing.
