Good plans

Les Night Fountains Show offers a unique opportunity to stroll through the groves, usually closed to the public, and admire the fountains illuminated by water and light. As you wander, rediscover the greatest Baroque music from Lully to Charpentier, Gluck to Rameau. A unique and magical experience.

A walk full of wonders and surprises, culminating in magnificent water features and cascades of light at the Neptune Fountain, the largest fountain in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles.

On 4 July, to mark the 250th anniversary of American Independence, an aerial ballet combining drones and pyrotechnics will light up the skies above Versailles and celebrate the colours of the American flag.
