What types of ceremonies are held when a new leader is named in France?

When a new leader is named in France, particularly a president, an official ceremony is typically held at the Élysée Palace. This ceremony includes the formal transfer of power, where the outgoing president hands over the presidential insignia to the new leader. It often features the playing of the national anthem, a military honor guard, and a speech by the new president outlining their vision. Additionally, there may be a public inauguration event, where the leader addresses citizens and dignitaries.
