In the Travel Zone French tour operators and regional tourist boards will be on hand to offer advice on visiting their part of the country, they’ll also be holding free seminars and there will be designated areas for boating, cycling, camping, walking, skiing and golf vacations in France.
The Language and Culture Zone has advice and guidance on learning French and a French bookstore while in the Lifestyle Zone French restaurants and a champagne bar will be opened along with a French Wall of Fame while French street entertainers will perform.
