Sponsor Bastille Day 2026

Joie de Vivre au Cœur de Minneapolis/St Paul !

 

Why sponsor Bastille Day?
Our Bastille Day celebration is entirely free to the public thanks to the generosity of our community.

By becoming a sponsor or patron, you keep this event accessible to everyone and directly support the exceptional local Francophone musicians, dancers, and performers who bring the festival to life.

La France. La Francophonie. Notre Communauté.
Every year, Bastille Day introduces thousands in our community to our organization. Your support does more than fund a festival—it directly drives our mission to celebrate the rich, global diversity of the Francophone world.
