Quebec City's legendary Winter Carnival is celebrating its 70th anniversary in 2024, and it promises to be an epic celebration. From January 25th to February 11th, the city will transform into a winter wonderland, offering more excitement and novelties than ever before.

For nearly seven decades, the Quebec Winter Carnival has been an integral part of Canadian culture, and this year, it's going all out. Imagine sliding down the many slopes of Slide City or feeling the adrenaline rush of the Ice Cross Kraft. But that's just the beginning! Get ready for six incredible music nights featuring Ian Asher at Electro-Frette, Claudia Bouvette's Pop Night, a Hip-Hop night with Loud, and the Francophone tunes of Bleu Jeans Bleu. After the second Night Parade, cap off the night with Disco festivities featuring the Boogie Wonder Band.

The Quebec Winter Carnival is a place for everyone – a perfect spot to capture stories and bask in winter joy. Let's not overlook the return of Bonhomme's Masked Ball at Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, the new Gougoune et doudoune Mr. Christie summer site in winter, the cherished Night Parades, the Effigies Rally by Sail, urban LaserGame, and so much more!
