An unforgettable evening at Bastille on Bishop

On Monday, July 14th, we celebrated Bastille Day in the heart of Oak Cliff—with wine in hand, live music in the air, and so much joie de vivre.

More than just a street festival, Bastille on Bishop is a tribute to Oak Cliff’s French roots. Back in the 1850s, this neighborhood was home to La Réunion, a utopian French colony built on the ideals of liberté, égalité, fraternité—and it still carries that spirit today.

Grateful for a magical night full of energy, community, and celebration. Until next year!  ]]> https://www.afdallas.org/media/website_posts/21/IMG_4999.jpg page https://www.afdallas.org/our-past-event-highlights/bastille-day/ 2025-07-14 23:00:00 43 4 The Wild Detectives for hosting such a magical evening. 

A special shout-out to our sponsors — the Bureau du Québec, the Fédération, and Whisk Crêpes — and to Scott, David Mourad, Jackie Minton, Danièle M., and everyone who made this event possible. 

You brought the energy — what a night! 
Can’t wait for next year!  ]]> https://www.afdallas.org/media/website_posts/43/790A5193.jpg page https://www.afdallas.org/our-past-event-highlights/la-fete-de-la-musique/ 2025-06-21 15:14:00
