All year round, a series of concerts, operas, recitals and ballets are presented in the most beautiful areas of the Palace: the Royal Opera, the Royal Chapel and the Hall of Mirrors, with ambitious projects by the greatest international baroque music artists such as Jordi Savall, William Christie and Franco Fagioli.

the Musical fountains shows, the musical gardens and the royal serenade
From the April to the end of October.
On Musical Gardens days, visitors are invited to explore and discover groves that are not usually open to the public with baroque music playing in the background.
On Musical Fountains Show days, baroque melodies are complemented by the dancing waters of the fountains.
From June to September on Saturdays.
During the Night Fountains Show, the gardens of Louis XIV offer an astonishing visit with sound and visual effects as night falls. Pools and groves are orchestrated and sublimed, coming to life before the visitor's eyes with fountains and lights and culminating with a dazzling firework display.
Just before the Fountains Night Show visitors can attend the Royal Serenade staged by the Dance Company, a 50-minute show in the King's State Apartments.

versailles festival
In your costume identical to those of the most beautiful periods of Versailles, you are invited to discover the refined and artistic atmosphere of the parties and to relive the wedding of Marie Leszczynska, Princess of Poland, and Louis XV for a timeless and unforgettable moment.
To the sound of kettledrums and trumpets, we welcome you to the Marble Courtyard with a glass of champagne.
Wander freely through the Grands Appartements, where you will be entertained by sketches and demonstrations of the games that used to be played at the Sun King’s court. You will also attend the two activities that you have selected at the time of purchase.
To round off this royal evening, at 11pm, you could enjoy the closing ball in the Hall of Mirrors. The evening will end with fireworks viewed from the Hall of Mirrors, as during the finest hours of Versailles.
An unforgettable evening as only Versailles can offer !
