July 11, 2025, marked the kickoff of the Bastille Day French Fest, a three-day event held at Fillmore Plaza in Cherry Creek North. While the rain tried to stop the show, it could not steal the thunder of this casual, open-air market, family and dog-friendly free event. The various vendors, live music, en plein air artists—like Darrell Anderson — and crepes were all perfect ingredients for an easy-going and fun weekend. There were also various ticketed events throughout the weekend that celebrated French wine, cuisine, art, fashion and music.
