The essence of all that is French – from fashion to lifestyle, and from shopping to gourmet – will be celebrated during a one-week festival from May 2.

French Week 2007, organised by the Bahraini-French Business Club in co-ordination with the French Embassy, will be held under the patronage of the Economic Development Board (EDB).
“With its tantalising ‘Francetastic’ slogan, the festival promises to deliver a week-long fun-filled and exciting time to all those who love all things French,” French Week Committee chairman Rodolphe Melki promised.
