Perhaps the most eagerly-anticipated event during the Month of Francophonie, the Grande Fête is an invitation to travel the continents of the world in one night: each year, more than thirty five embassies unite to present their culture and cuisine to an enthusiastic public, accompanied by the sound of a special concert by an artist from the French-speaking world.
?From 7:00pm to 10:00pm, visit each and every table to sample the countries? foods and beverages and admire their arts and crafts.
Drinks will be up for sale as early as 10pm at the cash bar (cash only please).
?At 8:00pm: Live concert with Jomion and the Uklos (Benin), in partnership with the Alliance des Béninois de New York.
?From 10:30pm, we?ll crank up the volume to let our guests take over the dance floor with La Femme (France).
