Major holidays in France include Bastille Day on July 14, which commemorates the French Revolution and the storming of the Bastille prison in 1789, symbolizing the fight for liberty and equality. Another significant holiday is Armistice Day on November 11, honoring the end of World War I and remembering those who died in military service. Christmas on December 25 celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, while Easter, with its varying dates, marks the resurrection of Christ and includes various traditions such as egg hunts. Additionally, Labor Day on May 1 celebrates workers' rights and achievements.
