The French celebrate their freedom day in style

This event was made possible by the association of French people in Botswana called Gaborone ACCUEIL. The night started off with a reggae version of the France national anthem, to which many used as a cue to show off their dancing skills. Dancing was the order of the day for the many who gathered there as every individual took to the stage and displayed their dancing skills. 

One of the organisers of the event, Bernard Godeotent told Showbiz that Bastille Day is a day that the French value the most.  He said every year, thousands of people in France gather to celebrate and usually this celebration is in a form of dance.  He explained that this year's celebrations were not held on July 14th because it would have clashed with Botswana's President's Day holiday.
