Event Information

The Alliance Française de Sacramento is celebrating the 80th anniversary of the Allied liberation of France with a festive evening called Vive la Liberté! on Saturday, October 19, 2024, 4:00-7:00 PM in the CLARA auditorium in Midtown.

Vive la Liberté ! aims to recreate the atmosphere of jubilation that swept through France as Allied forces liberated the country from Nazi occupation. The celebration will kick off with simple swing dance lessons, followed by live music, French hors d’oeuvres and, of course, champagne, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages. Of course there will be chocolates and plenty of other desserts.

To add to the festive commemoration of this pivotal moment in history, the event will feature some dancers in period costume and songs in French and English.

Should you have 1940s /swing-themed attire, it’s a great occasion for it. (Completely optional)
