Here we are: the national holiday is approaching quickly, which means that France will be filled with celebrations and, of course, the traditional fireworks lighting up all corners of the Hexagon. This year in Paris, there’s a special twist: the fireworks will be set off on the evening of July 13 instead of the 14th. Indeed, July 14, 2026, will also mark the tenth anniversary of the Nice attacks — so the capital wants to give this event the respect it deserves.
We know that in Paris, the national holiday fireworks are always a grand spectacle. And this year will surely be no exception! So to make the most of it, here are 5 spots to admire them.
TOO Restaurant
It is undoubtedly one of the establishments that offers the most spectacular views.
Beautiful view of the capital. For the national holiday, TOO Restaurant invites you to a gathering 120 meters high to admire the festivities and the fireworks up close. You can choose between two experiences: the main dining room menu (€85) or the front-row menu facing the fireworks (€115).Voir cette publication sur Instagram
