Overview
- The funeral mass will be held at 11:00 on Jan. 7 at Église Notre-Dame de l’Assomption in Saint-Tropez, according to the Fondation Brigitte Bardot.
- The church service is by invitation only but will be shown on large screens at the port and Place des Lices, followed by an open tribute at the Pré des Pêcheurs.
- An inhumation described as private and confidential will take place at the cimetière marin de Saint-Tropez, where Bardot’s parents and Roger Vadim are buried.
- Although Bardot had long said she wished to rest at her La Madrague property, local authorities and the foundation now indicate she will be buried at the marine cemetery, and associates say she had revised her preference.
- A condolence register is available at the Saint-Tropez town hall, while the political debate over a possible national homage continues, with Éric Ciotti pushing for it, Olivier Faure opposing it, and the presidency deferring to the family.
