Galette des Rois 2026
Celebrate “La Galette des Rois” with FIPA!
On Friday, January 9th, 2026, students in the French Program at Coconut Grove Elementary, Sunset Elementary, G.W. Carver Middle School, ISCHS and ISPA will celebrate the beloved French tradition of La Galette des Rois.
FIPA will offer a galette to every student in the French program, directly in their classroom, with our partner Marie Blachere Bakery.
What is La Galette des Rois?
La Galette des Rois is a traditional French pastry enjoyed in January to celebrate Epiphany. A small charm (fève) is hidden inside, and the person who finds it becomes king or queen for the day!
To celebrate this tradition in schools, we are replacing the traditional King Cake with a King’s Brioche due to allergies (nut-free).
