Bastille Day in Marseille: ARTEVENTIA sets the Old Port ablaze in 2024 and 2025<\/strong><\/h1>\n

In Marseille, July 14th is never just a simple fireworks display. It is a popular gathering, a moment suspended between sea and sky, where the entire city comes together around the Old Port to celebrate Bastille Day. <\/p>\n

In 2024 and 2025, ARTEVENTIA & PANZERA had the honour of designing and producing these two major pyrotechnic frescoes, launched from the Old Port basin and the Citadel, delivering spectacular staging that blends heritage, sea and light.<\/p>\n

2024 \u2014 Marseille celebrates the Olympic Games<\/em><\/h2>\n

In 2024, Marseille pulsed to the rhythm of the Olympic Games<\/strong>. As host city for the sailing events of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games<\/span><\/span>, the Phocaean city was immersed in an exceptional sporting and international energy. <\/p>\n

The show imagined by ARTEVENTIA paid tribute to this global event through a powerful, symbolic creation:<\/p>\n

    The simultaneous firing from the Old Port basin<\/strong> and the heights of the Citadel<\/strong> created spectacular depth, transforming the Marseille sky into a monumental arena of light.<\/p>\n

    For nearly 25 minutes, the harbour blazed in a meticulously choreographed scenography, acclaimed by tens of thousands of spectators gathered on the quays, surrounding hills and terraces.<\/p>\n
