Do you mean French holidays in France or elsewhere?

Canada has a big French population in the province of Quebec, and they used to celebrate "St. Jean-Baptiste" holiday up here (June 24th.) The holiday has since been renamed to Quebec National Day (La Fete Nationale).

If you want to review French national holidays, you can install the national holidays pack for France in your Microsoft Outlook, and then you can Google any of the ones listed that are not also native to the USA.

Christmas is native now?? I thought it was a global holiday. The day of the Bastille is a French holiday alone. It's the 14th of July.
