The Quebec Winter Carnival

The Quebec Winter Carnival
If you don't know the Carnival yet, it's time to remedy the situation! The Quebec Winter Carnival is an outdoor festival that celebrates winter and Nordic culture from late January to mid-February. For a period of 10 days, the city transforms into a winter wonderland, featuring numerous ice and snow sculptures, the 100%-made-of Ice Palace of Bonhomme, the "Laser Game Evolution" at the Citadelle de Quebec, two magically enchanting Night parades, and Musical Evenings in a fairy-tale setting. Not to mention several activity sites for both kids and adults. It’s the world’s largest winter carnival. You certainly don't want to miss! Let's celebrate for the 72nd Quebec Winter Carnival, from February 6 to 15, 2026.
