Le défilé du 14-Juillet à Béziers a réuni les autorités civiles et militaires, comme de coutume, mais aussi les association sprtives de la ville, mises à l'honneur en cette année de Jeux olympiques.

The Paul-Riquet alleys had a little air of the Champs-Élysées on this Sunday, July 14, Bastille Day. The moment was meant to be solemn, with blue white red flags, marked out route, interrupted traffic and a crowd crowding behind the barriers, from 10 am. The civil and military authorities, led by Mayor Robert Ménard and Sub-Prefect Jacques Lucbereilh, not forgetting the brand new MP Julien Gabarron, marched down the avenue before taking their places on the platform erected at the height of Place Jean-Jaurès.

The city's sports associations, in the spotlight because of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, led the way, followed by the police – gendarmerie and national police -, the men of the Navy and the young recruits of the marine military training, the firefighters of Hérault, the Civil Protection, the veterans.

In this year when we commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Landing and the end of the Second World War, Jeeps of the time also paraded, without forgetting the municipal police, who closed the procession by marching in step and singing. Awesome!
