A brief overview of cruises on the Seine in Paris, from which you can admire the 13 July 2026 fireworks display in the best possible conditions. To ensure you can enjoy the show in a romantic and comfortable setting, why not book a dinner cruise on a boat sailing along the Seine? This is a prime spot for admiring the show from several exceptional vantage points, far from the crowds, from the bay windows or on the deck of the boat.
To celebrate Bastille Day in style, Paris’s oldest and most iconic cabaret, the Paradis Latin, is leaving its historic Left Bank venue for one magical night. Aboard the prestigious and luxurious ship Le Paquebot, the troupe invites you to its exclusive gala cruise: Paradis sur Seine. This exceptional evening (exceptionally scheduled for Monday 13 July this year to coincide with the fireworks display) brilliantly combines a spectacular Parisian show with the excellence of French gastronomy. The ship casts off from Quai Henri IV for a prestigious cruise along the river, passing Notre-Dame de Paris, the Louvre and the Musée d’Orsay, before taking up a front-row position opposite the Eiffel Tower.
