Royal Serenade & Night Fountains Show

THE ROYAL SERENADE IN THE HALL OF MIRRORS

On summer Saturday evenings, after the Musical Fountains Show or before the Night Fountains Show, the Royal Serenade in the Hall of Mirrors opens the doors to the most beautiful rooms of the Palace of Versailles. As the sun sets, the Royal Serenade in the Hall of Mirrors offers you a fifty-minute visit-performance, from the Royal Chapel to the Hall of Mirrors, where artists, dancers, musicians, singers, and fencers, dressed in sumptuous baroque costumes, will bring back to life, in the image of the 17th-century court, scenes witnessed by the golden splendor of Versailles.

After the Royal Serenade show, you will head to the gardens to attend the Night Fountains Show at 8:30 pm.
