Overview
- President Emmanuel Macron, former president François Hollande and cabinet members joined survivors and families for name readings and floral tributes at the Stade de France, cafés and the Bataclan.
- A new memorial garden near Paris City Hall was set to open in the evening, with church bells ringing at Notre-Dame and the Eiffel Tower illuminated in the national colors.
- Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said security was tightened for the commemorations as authorities assess a very high risk following multiple disrupted plots in 2025.
- Survivor Arthur Dénouveaux confirmed his victims' association dissolved on the anniversary to avoid a permanent victim identity, saying the attackers did not prevail.
- The 2015 attacks, later claimed by the Islamic State, killed 130 people and wounded hundreds as three coordinated teams bombed sites near cafés and the national stadium and opened fire at the Bataclan.
