    The welcome, the course, the different groves, the play of light on the fountains - it was magnificent and unique! Luckily for us, the rain stopped when we arrived and started up again in the middle of the fireworks! The rain spoiled the moment a little...

    Great VIP parking and a nice reception with champagne. The show with music, pyrotechnics and the final fireworks display in front of the illuminated garden façade of Versailles Palace was well worth seeing.

  • Explore the Gardens of Versailles through a musical journey where fountains, groves, and baroque soundscapes transform the estate into a magical open-air spectacle.

    Getting started

    Arrive at the Gardens of Versailles at your selected time and present your ticket at the entrance for validation. Depending on the option chosen, you can attend the daytime Fountains Show, the nighttime Fountains Show, or the Musical Gardens Show. Carry a valid photo ID and allow extra time for entry checks.

    What to expect

    Step into the magnificent Gardens of Versailles and experience them in a way that goes far beyond a regular stroll. Depending on your chosen option, you can watch the fountains come alive during the daytime Fountains Show, where choreographed water displays move to baroque music by composers like Lully, Charpentier, Gluck, and Rameau, offering a glimpse into the grandeur of the Sun King’s court. For a more dramatic outing, choose the nighttime Fountains Show and follow a 2.5-hour route through illuminated gardens, hidden masterpieces, and striking topiaries, ending with a breathtaking fireworks finale at the Fountain of Neptune by Groupe F. If you prefer a calmer visit, the Musical Gardens Show lets you wander through peaceful groves usually closed to the public, where gentle water jets and classical music create a serene and elegant atmosphere. Across all options, expect a beautifully immersive experience of music, light, water, and landscape design in one of Versailles’ most enchanting settings.
