Celebrating Together is definitely another of the Comité Tricolore’s CT acronyms!

Celebrate Bastille Day with us!

Join us at the French Embassy July 16th at 7 pm.

We have planned a seated exclusive dinner with a reduced number of guests.

Be part of the Embassy reopening and take advantage of our early bird tickets as they will sell out fast! You can purchase them on Eventbrite.

This year’s theme is La Savoie - the heart of the French Alps, a beautiful and culturally rich area of France.

Just to tempt you, here are the details of the festivities:

The sit-down meal for 175 people will be served and you will be seated according to your reservations at tables of 2 to 10 people in order to respect the Covid-19 safety protocols of the French Embassy and the City of Washington, D.C.

You should arrive around 7 pm and will be offered a glass of champagne and served a tasting of dishes of the Savoie region and much more.
So yes, Un-Wine and Taste New Peaks!

Meanwhile you will have a chance to glance around the items in the silent auction and bid on those you want to take home.

For your entertainment, we will have a Live Band until 10 pm.
