Paris Winding Up for Full-Scale Bastille Day Festivities

    AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, June 30, 2011 /Online Shopping PR News/ -- Amidst a glorious summer of local and national events across the globe, international travel experts easytobook.com recommend that mid-July visitors to Paris secure their Paris accommodation without delay in order to avoid disappointment this Bastille Day.

Parisian celebrations typically involve fireworks around the Eiffel Tower, Saint Germain des Pres district, and around Montparnasse. Due to the congregation of such large crowds, however, the best vantage points are found in the higher areas of the city's notably Montmartre and the roof of Georges Pompidou Centre.

The morning of Thursday 14th will see a traditional parade of French military vehicles and personnel, led by Nicholas Sarkozy along the Champs-Elysees, from Arc de Triomphe to Place de la Conchord. Among the troops in the parade, onlookers will be able to see military cadets as well as the French Navy and French Foreign Legion. The procession also features military vehicles, including tanks and fighter jets, to complete the ensemble.

That evening will also see the occasion of Firemen's Balls across the city, where firehouses will open up their doors for further revelry and displays of dancing. These exhibitions usually feature the fire-fighters themselves, and encourage donations towards their charitable trust, which are always gratefully received.

Bastille Day, or La Fete Nationale, celebrates the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille in 1789, the first major incident of the French Revolution. This day is a public holiday throughout all of France and is often marked across the country by fireworks, dancing and music, and community feasting. A popular festival countrywide, Paris is the first choice for great numbers of tourists who wish to witness the parade and the famous Parisian fireworks. This popularity has the potential to put a strain on Paris hotels and is likely to drive demand and rates to much higher levels.
