The Musical Fountain Show 2026
Enjoy the extraordinary beauty of the gardens of Palace of Versailles, as you stroll with your family or friends through the groves exceptionally open to the public, discover the fountains playing and listen to the music that once animated them.
The 55 fountains and basins and their 600 water features, set in motion with the help of a lyre key by the fountain artists of the Château de Versailles, will delight you. The greatest baroque composers, from Lully to Handel, will accompany you in your royal stroll in music.
The Grandes Eaux Musicales, a success that has never been denied for over 350 years! A must-see!
