A fantastic first day!

The show was officially opened by the French Ambassador to the U.K., H.E. Monsieur Bernard Emie.  The Ambassador welcomed everyone to the show, and said in his opening address to the assembled crowd, 'Over the next three days this hall will be packed with thousands of people all here to celebrate the best of France, right here in the heart of London.... I hope it plays its part in boosting our 'entente cordiale' even more.'

Yesterday Nick Hewer, of 'The Apprentice' and now 'Countdown' fame was spotted chatting to one of our language exhibitors and generally enjoying himself at the show!

It's not too late to come along to Earls Court for a flavour of France and everything it has to offer.  Tickets can still be purchased via this website for only £10 in advance.  Full price tickets are available on the door. 

See you at the show!

The atmosphere was fantastic and we had a lot of interest for French lessons. It''s a real success, I'll definitely do it again.

A throughly enjoyable afternoon out. It brought back treasured memories of our holidays in France. Stalls and entertainment were outstanding. Tickets were easily accessible on the Internet. We thought Carol Drinkwater was brilliant and the Can-Can! Roll on next time and we will then spend more time browsing the exhibitions.
