Paris Fire Department Ball

For many years, the July 14 Firefighters’ Ball has been part of France’s cultural heritage and contributes each year to the success of the National Day celebrations. The firefighters are happy to welcome the public to their fire station. Check out the schedule of free concerts, dances, and events in Paris and various cities in the Île-de-France region.

Where are the Paris Firefighters? Balls held, and are they free?

Here is the list of fire stations that organize a celebration every year for July 14. Be aware that the dates of the balls may vary from one station to another. Although it's commonly referred to as the July 14 ball, it may very well take place on July 13. Some balls require an admission fee, but it's usually just a token amount; otherwise, the traditional collection barrel will be there to receive your financial contribution: so please be generous to our firefighters!
