**Travel to French soil and celebrate with us two of the most important French traditions. No plane ticket required. 👑** You need to buy a ticket for this event, not only RSVP ! 🎟️Register here : https://www.eventbrite.com/e/la-galette-des-rois-les-voeux-2026-a-french-celebration-tickets-1956401883699?aff=oddtdtcreator * **La Galette des Rois:** in the U.S., food festivities start at Thanksgving and continue with Christmas and New Year's Eve, and then it's over. But it's not over in France, where during the entire month of January and even a little beyond, families and friends gather, usually on several occasions, to celebrate the 700-year old tradition of Galette des Rois (The King's Cake). The cake, traditionally topped with a golden paper crown, is a sweet and delicious puff pastry confection with almond-flavored frangipane filling. But the celebration is much more than that, as the person who will end up with la fève, a small porcelain charm hidden in one of the slices, becomes a "King/Queen for the Day". Be assured, there will be many kings and queens during our evening! * **Les Voeux:** Wishing "Meilleurs Voeux pour la Nouvelle Annee" (best wishes for the New Year) in France is not just something you do on January 1. French people do it the entire month, and it often becomes the pretext for more celebration and Champagne toasting. **Join us for this most traditional yet lively evening featuring:** * **Delicious Galettes des Rois** prepared by Fresh Baguette * **Hors-D'oeuvre**s prepared by [Chef Daniel Labonne](https://labonnedc.com/ "https://labonnedc.com/"), Executive Chef at the Embassy of France - VIP Hour only * **Degustation of Jambon de Bayonne**, a delicate and delicious cured ham from the Basque region of France. * **Buffet** with delicious French cheeses, cold cuts and veggie options. * **Open bar all night** \- As if you were invited to an upscale party on the Champs Elysees\, set the mood to celebration by enjoying a glass of bubbly or other fine French wine\. * **Champagne** and bubblies from France * Excellent red, white and rosé wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy, Loire Valley, Alsace. Rhone, Provence, etc. * European Beers * **Live music** * All guests will leave with a **baguette from Fresh Baguette.** * **French photo backgrounds** for great-looking selfies * **Prizes for all the Kings and Queens** * **Raffle** * **Art** Take the opportunity to **network** with fellow Francophiles, French VIPs, diplomats, professionals and business people in the wonderful Maison Francaise at the French Embassy.
