French people have the day off on the 14th of July. On the 13th there are usually public balls in towns often at the fire brigade barracks, and fireworks in scenic places.

On the 14th in Paris there is a big military parade and the crowds gather to see their servicemen descending the Champs-Elysées. It is very common for people living farther away to watch the parade live on TV on the morning, then the tour de France stage in the afternoon.
