Coucou Bastille Week

With Coucou, Bastille Day lasts for a whole week!

Bastille Day – or, as we call it in French, le 14 juillet – is just around the corner. To celebrate, we’ve planned a full week of socially-distanced French-themed events! Pour yourself a glass of pastis or rosé, put on your béret and join in on the fun!
