How to Host a Bastille Day Party with a Photobooth
Bastille Day, celebrated every July 14th, is France’s National Day — a time to enjoy French culture, food, and festive fun. If you’re planning a Bastille Day event, adding a photobooth is a brilliant way to capture the joy, laughter, and Parisian flair of the occasion. Here are some chic ideas to make your Bastille Day party truly magnifique!

1. Design a Parisian-Inspired Backdrop
Set the scene with an eye-catching backdrop that transports guests straight to Paris. Think Eiffel Tower cutouts, French flags, or a charming café street scene. Use red, white, and blue streamers or balloons to tie in the French tricolour. A themed backdrop makes photos pop and keeps the vibe authentic.
2. Add French-Themed Props
Props help guests get creative! Stock your photobooth with classic French items like berets, baguettes, oversized mustaches, and tiny chalkboard signs with phrases like “Vive la France!” or “Ooh La La!” Props break the ice and inspire fun poses, especially when paired with stylish costumes.
3. Pair It with French Treats
Take your photobooth experience up a notch by setting it near a table of French goodies — think macarons, croissants, and sparkling wine. Guests can nibble, sip, and snap photos all in one spot, creating a memorable corner of your party.

4. Encourage Group Poses
Bastille Day is all about community and celebration. Make sure your photobooth has enough space for group photos. Families, friends, and co-workers will love squeezing in together for a joyful snapshot they can cherish.
5. Share the French Flair
Provide instant prints or a digital gallery so guests can relive the celebration. Add your event hashtag for easy sharing on social media — your Bastille Day party might just inspire others to join in the French fun next year!
