Les Fêtes de Nuit de Versailles

The dazzling sound and light spectacular in the gardens of Versailles attempts to recreate the spirit of the lavish court pageants given by Louis XIV. Costumed actors and dancer perform a six-act ‘entertainment’ unimaginatively described as ‘Four dreams, one reality and a final’, against a background of fireworks, music and – most importantly – Le Nôtre’s Baroque fountains. Not to be missed.
