Countries: France
Category: Transportation
Rating: Low
Additional security measures will be deployed for the duration of the Fetes de Bayonne Festival in Bayonne, Pyrenees-Atlantiques, between Wednesday, 25 and Sunday, 29 July. It is indicated that 1,000 extra security personnel will be deployed and roadblocks will be implemented across the town. It is expected that close to one million people will attend the festival.

Members are reminded of the increased security presence and should remain vigilant in large crowds order to limit the chances of being affected by incidental violence and opportunistic crime.
