A colorful pyrotechnic display. The traditional Bastille Day fireworks display, launched over the Eiffel Tower in Paris , took place Monday evening. The event, in Brazilian colors, began at 11 p.m. Before that, a large free classical music concert presented by Stéphane Bern took place on the Champ-de-Mars. It brought together the Orchestre National de France, the Choir, and the Maîtrise de Radio France. The festivities were broadcast live on France 2 and France Inter, as well as simultaneously by the EBU-Eurovision on channels in more than 20 countries.
