Bastille Day

For the seventh year running, Bankside and Borough Market are hosting London’s largest free Bastille Day Festival to celebrate France’s national day with an extravaganza of all things French. The party starts a day early on Sunday 13th July in and around the beautiful surroundings of London’s historic food market, Borough Market.

Enjoy family-friendly fun including magicians, street performers and live music. Get competitive with the classic French game of boules, a pétanque court will be set up outside authentic French restaurant La Cave. In the true spirit of the French revolution there will be a guillotine provided by The London Tombs, which will be chopping fresh watermelon.
