Overview
- President Emmanuel Macron is scheduled to honor victims at each attack site—from the Stade de France to the Bataclan—before inaugurating the Jardin du 13 novembre 2015 in central Paris this evening.
- The evening ceremony at the new memorial near Hôtel de Ville will feature music-directed remembrance with the names of victims engraved on granite blocks symbolizing the six attack locations.
- Public commemorations will be broadcast live, with an outdoor screen at Place de la République and the bells of Notre-Dame and Paris churches ringing at dusk in tribute.
- At the France–Ukraine match in Paris, a minute of silence, a “Football for Peace” banner and Bleuet de France insignia on players’ shirts are planned as formal honors to the victims.
- A new Fondation Jean-Jaurès/Ifop study reports enduring collective trauma, with strong support for remembrance, widespread “flashbulb” memories and more people reporting lasting changes in daily habits.
