Comparing festivals in Britain with those in France

Christmas – la veille de Noël, le réveillon, Noël The French have their celebration meal on Christmas Eve (la veille de Noël) and it is called le réveillon. It is a large meal consisting of oysters, fish, pâté de foie gras (liver pâté), followed by beef, chicken, turkey or goose then, cheese, fruit and lastly a bûche de Noël or Yuletide log. Traditionally children place wooden shoes/clogs (les sabots) in the fireplace so that Santa Claus (le Père Noël) can bring them presents. Nowadays, they might use ordinary shoes or slippers instead.

Feast of the Magi – la fête des Rois This is a childrens festival. A galette des Rois (a kind of round flat cake made out of puff pastry and almond cream) is baked and a fève (favour) is placed inside. The galette is cut into pieces, and the child who finds the favour is named roi (king) or reine (queen) for the day. The child who finds the favour should say La voilà! They then wear a couronne (crown) and the other children say, Vive le roi! or Vive la reine! which means Long live the king/queen!

Shrove Tuesday/ Pancake Day – Mardi gras In many French towns and villages, Mardi Gras is also a carnival, where people disguise themselves with masks and costumes and take to the streets. One of the most famous is in Nice, where people wear giant masks in the Mardi Gras parade, so it looks like giant heads with tiny bodies are walking through the streets.

Mothers Day – la fête des mères In France it is usually celebrated on the last Sunday in May as opposed to before Easter in Britain. Mothers are encouraged to rest completely and are given gifts – traditionally, lily of the valley posies and heart-shaped cakes or biscuits decorated with a loving message. Families celebrate together with a special meal.
