July 14th in Carcassonne: Blaze and Fireworks

Experience the magic of July 14th in Carcassonne with one of the most spectacular fireworks displays in France! This grand show lights up the UNESCO World Heritage medieval City, creating a breathtaking visual effect that makes it look like the ramparts are on fire.


Each year, the event attracts between 100,000 and 150,000 visitors from across France and abroad, making it one of the largest July 14th gatherings in France. This year’s edition brilliantly celebrated the Paris 2024 Olympic Games with Olympic colors and themes.


To fully enjoy this unforgettable experience, stay at L’écrin Coeur de Vignes, our 5-star gîte located just 200 meters from the medieval City. With its prime location, you’ll have a magical view of the fireworks while relaxing in an exceptional setting.
