Baroque music
What you need to know
- Plan around the water times: every grove and basin runs 2:30-3:15pm and 4-4:45pm on weekends, so walk between them in the gaps
- Water Theater Grove is off: its fountains are suspended for repairs, so skip it on your route
- Gardens only, no palace: the fountain-show ticket covers the gardens; going inside the palace needs the Passport
About
On fountain-show days, the fountains and groves of the Versailles gardens spout in time to baroque music. Several walking circuits lead past the famous basins and into groves usually closed to visitors. Kids get big moments at the Latona and Apollo fountains, where the water runs high over the gilded statues. It suits families happy to spend hours on foot outdoors.
