Waiting for the fireworks to start. I had the privilege to witness the Epic fireworks at the Eiffel Tower for the 2017 Bastille day 14 July. What an atmosphere and vibe to be there in person. Some tips when you are planning this. It was quite a wait and a long day as we had to get a good spot. So you need to take enough to eat and drink. No Alcohol allowed inside the Eiffel Tower perimeter. We sat on a street just outside as we took along some French Champagne. Also took some blankets and if need a pillow. Parking is a problem. Getting out of the area by car and also by public transport directly afterwards can be a headache and a nightmare. Unless you like being stuck for hours. Book a parking garage online a few days in advance. Rates are much better. Pick a garage not too far (that everyone else can catch up) but also not too close (too much congestion) and one with easy exit onto main routes away from the rush. Then park your car earlier the day. After the fireworks you can basically get to your car quicker and get out quicker. This worked very well for us. Le Quatorze Juillet or La Fête Nationale.
