Saint-Tropez Sets Private Farewell for Brigitte Bardot on Wednesday

The family and foundation are enforcing a pared‑back, invitation‑only rite to mirror her wishes.

Overview

  • The funeral will begin at 11:00 at Notre-Dame de l’Assomption in Saint-Tropez, followed by a strictly private interment at the cimetière marin.
  • The Fondation Brigitte Bardot says the ceremony will be simple and by invitation only, with dark attire requested and wildflower bouquets without roses.
  • Marine Le Pen has confirmed attendance in a personal capacity, while President Emmanuel Macron will not attend after the family declined an Élysée offer of a national homage.
  • Her son Nicolas‑Jacques Charrier is expected from Oslo with his daughters and grandchildren, while sister Mijanou and actor Sami Frey are not expected; longtime associates including Max Guazzini, Chico of the Gipsy Kings, Paul Watson and Allain Bougrain‑Dubourg are reported among invitees.
  • Saint‑Tropez has installed giant screens and planned an afternoon gathering at the Pré des pêcheurs for wider tributes, as local hotels fill and florists report surging orders.
