Le Grand Défilé

The Grand Parade
Every year, the Grand Défilé sets the 18th in motion, driven by its traditions, its talents, and the energy of those who bring it to life.

From the Vignes du Clos Montmartre to the 18th District Town Hall, more than fifty brotherhoods from France and beyond – wine-related, gastronomic, and traditional – parade alongside residents and the cultural and sporting associations of the district. Throughout the streets, costumes, music, and craftsmanship compose a colorful collective symphony.

Escorted by the youth of MACADAM 18, this historic procession brings together nearly 1,400 participants in a shared spirit of transmission and conviviality. A living celebration where everyone adds their own note to make the spirit of the Vendanges resonate.

An unmissable highlight of the Fête des Vendanges, popular and unifying, to be admired all along the streets of Montmartre, where the 18th sets the rhythm.
