Each year, to commemorate France’s own Independence Day on July 14, 1789, Bastille Day on 60th Street brings the best of France to New York.
The street is closed for a whole afternoon of activities and delights for the entire family. Kids can play a round of pétanque or get their faces painted at the Kids Corner booth. From tasting delicious treats to listening to music at our day-long concert, everyone will enjoy the attractions provided by artists and artisans from various regions of France, as well as other French-speaking countries.
