QUÉBEC CITY BRIGHTENS UP!

Thousands of lights and lanterns to make Old Québec shine all winter long!

In total, 75,000 lights and 1,000 lanterns have been hung everywhere: in trees, stairways, on street lamps, etc. The whole thing forms a 1.2 km long winter illumination trail that stretches from Saint-Jean Street to Sault-au-Matelot Street.

Plan a day between now and mid-March to see Old Québec, the Old Port and Petit Champlain even more majestic… Keep your eyes open and let yourself be charmed!

The colours of this trail, created by Artefact Urbain, will change a few times during the winter, depending on events and the seasons. Come back and see!

STAY TUNED UNTIL SPRING...

Until Christmas: Québec City takes on a German feel with the Québec City German Christmas Market in full swing! Look closely, you’ll also find a bit of this country in the lights!

Québec City all red and green for the party!

Between Christmas and New Year’s Day:

The Kaléidoscopes Festival and the warmth of its programming are reflected in all these lights that embellish Old Québec!

In January:

Québec City under the snow! The polar code blue, the snowflakes and the icicles, like sparkling mirrors make the city shine brightly!

Early February:

It’s the Winter Carnival! Québec City turns red, white and blue like the arrowhead sash worn by Bonhomme!

Valentine's Day:

From February 14 to 16, beautiful Québec City blushes with so much love. Happy Valentine's Day!
