When is French Independence day?
Bastille Day
Bastille Day is the common name given in English-speaking countries to the national day of France, which is celebrated on 14 July each year. In French, it is formally called la Fête nationale (French pronunciation:​[la fɛt nasjɔnal]; "The National Celebration") and commonly and legally le 14 juillet (French pronunciation:​[lə katɔʁz(ə) ʒɥijɛ]; "the 14th of July").[3]
Bonfire
In France, the bonfire celebrates Jean le Baptiste during the Fête de la Saint-Jean (literally "feast of St John"), first Saturday after the solstice, about 24 June. Like the other countries, it was a pagan celebration of the solstice, or midsummer, but Christianisation transformed it into a catholic celebration.
