There’s no better time to embrace the spirit of France than on Bastille Day, and L’Alliance New York invites you to do just that at its elegant Tasting Party. Set high above the Upper East Side in the luminous Skyroom of a historic brownstone, this annual gathering is a toast to la belle vie. With sweeping views through floor-to-ceiling windows and a sun-drenched summer ambiance, the stage is set for an afternoon of French flair, fine tastes, and festive cheer.
As one of New York City’s most respected French cultural institutions, L’Alliance has long been a gateway to the richness of French life through language, cinema, cuisine, and the arts. On this special day, they open their doors to invite you into the heart of it all. With a deep reverence for la fête nationale française, L’Alliance brings together the elegance of fine food, the charm of effervescent drinks, and the warmth of a like-minded community.
Savor a selection of Mediterranean-inspired bites crafted by Le Cordon Bleu–trained Chef Abe Konick of Abe’s Kitchen, alongside decadent chocolates from the iconic La Maison du Chocolat. Raise a glass to liberté with Citadelle Gin cocktails, sparkling water from Maison Perrier, and a thoughtfully curated array of French regional wines that capture the spirit of sun-soaked vineyards from Bordeaux to the Rhône.
As you indulge, let the soulful melodies of the Margot Sergent Quartet sweep you away to a terrace in the South of France - no passport required. And when your Skyroom session concludes, the celebration continues just outside on Madison Avenue, where the day transforms into a city-wide tribute to French food, fashion, and art de vivre.
