Grand Fête de la Francophonie!

The DC Francophonie Festival kicks off with the Grande Fête, an exciting night of delicious food and live music from the French speaking world.

Savor culinary specialties from over 35 nations and dance the night away to live music provided by Cyprus’s Nikolas Metaxas and swinging Cajun tunes from Louisiana’s Steve Riley & the Mamou Playboys!

Representatives from various embassies, governments and institutions will be on hand to present their respective cultures and shed light on the rich traditions and cuisines of the French speaking world.

In addition, in solidarity with the Haitian people, a special raffle prize of two round-trip tickets to Tahiti will be featured. Proceeds will benefit the American Red Cross emergency relief and recovery efforts in Haiti.
