The magical summer dates!
Summer in Fréjus would not be complete without its fireworks, true ballets of light that set the sky ablaze. While the city enjoys 300 days of sunshine a year, it is in the summer night that it shines brightly, illuminating the horizon every Monday in July and August.
Shot from the sea, facing Port-Fréjus, these majestic shows are the most anticipated events of the season.
Every week, the people of Fréjus and holidaymakers flock to the beaches, their eyes fixed on the infinite sky, ready to be enchanted. When the first explosions erupt in the night, a gentle magic sets in, the breath taken away, the artificial stars mixing with the real ones.
Here is one of our recipes for happiness... Imagine yourself, with your feet in the sand, a carefully prepared picnic, surrounded by those you love. The sea as your accomplice, the sky as your theater, and suddenly, time seems suspended. It is an invitation to dream, to create unforgettable memories, here, under the enchanted skies of Fréjus.
Fireworks in Fréjus: a holiday memory
We have been coming to Fréjus every year for 20 years, and every summer we look forward to the Monday night fireworks. It has become our family tradition: we sit by the sea, enjoy an ice cream while admiring the fireworks display. These moments are truly magical and add a special touch to our holidays. Fréjus has created unforgettable memories for us, and each firework is a real moment of joy that we cherish
Watching the fireworks in Fréjus is an unforgettable experience, especially in the summer. Every Monday evening, the sky off Port-Fréjus lights up with vibrant colours, offering a magical pyrotechnic display. This highlight is made even more enjoyable by the festive atmosphere of the night market that takes place at the same time. You can stroll among the lively stalls, discover local products and savour gourmet specialities while getting ready for the show.
After exploring the market, you can stroll along the quays of the Port, where the atmosphere is particularly charming. The quays offer a splendid view of the fireworks, while allowing you to enjoy the sea breeze and the twinkling lights of the port. This perfect combination of the vibrant market, the seaside promenade, and the fireworks creates a magical evening that you will not soon forget.
Ice cream and fireworks: the ecstasy of the senses
To fully enjoy the magic of an evening under the bright stars, there is one irresistible pleasure that should not be overlooked: that of the taste buds.
Add to the beauty of the sky the delight of a melting ice cream, and happiness will be total. From Port-Fréjus to Fréjus-Plage, the night walk would not be complete without a stop at an ice cream parlor.
Master ice cream maker or simple Italian ice cream, let yourself be tempted... Here, the choice of flavors is as infinite as the explosions of colors that light up the night.
One, two or three scoops? Creamy vanilla, tangy strawberry, intense basil… A crunchy cone or a delicate pot? Sitting facing the sea or strolling on the beach? Each bite is a caress, each flavor a promise of sweetness.
The freshness of an ice cream that melts gently on the tongue while the sky lights up… At that moment, everything becomes delicious, and the evening, pure enchantment.
The “bonus” fireworks: the one on December 25!
In Fréjus, when the opportunity arises, the city offers a spectacular fireworks display on December 25th off the coast of Port-Fréjus. This pyrotechnic show is a magnificent way to end the Christmas meal in style. However, it is important to note that this fireworks display is not held every year. To avoid missing this festive event, it is advisable to consult the Christmas holiday program. This way, you can check if the fireworks display is planned for this year and prepare yourself to enjoy this wonderful tradition.
