Overview
To celebrate Bastille Day, the 223rd anniversary of Parisian insurgents storming the seat of royal power in France, the Argyle are letting loose an evening of wine, dancing, costume and music.
On the morning of July 14, 1789, around 1000 rebels attacked the medieval fortress and prison the Bastille and paved the way for a new era in French history, one of human rights away from the tyrannous monarchy. One of the main events at the beginning of the French revolution, the battle is a symbol of pride for the European nation, and thus is celebrated all over the world.
With a program of events including free wine, table tennis, cycling competitions, make-up stalls, French food, and can-can shows, the celebrations will run long into the night.
