Celebrate two of France's greatest icons in one unforgettable evening. Join us for a Bastille Day celebration with a Tour de France twist, an interactive night of French wine, friendly competition, and great company.
6:00–6:30pm — Kick-off & French Buffet
Start the evening with a warm welcome, a spread of French bites and an introduction to what's ahead. A perfect moment to catch up, mingle, and get into the Bastille Day spirit.
6:30–7:50pm — Activities
The group splits into two teams : the Yellow Jersey and the Dot Jersey and rotates through two exclusive sessions:
🍷 Wine Tasting — Discover 4 carefully selected French wines, guided through each one at your own pace. No expertise required just curiosity and a glass.
🚴 Tour de France Activity — A fun, fast-paced challenge inspired by the world's greatest cycling race. May the best team win.
Each team completes both sessions over two 40-minute rounds.
