Join the people who’ll be celebrating Canada’s national holiday in Québec City on July 1. Kickstart your day with an official ceremony on Dufferin Terrace, with a raising of the Canadian flag and free cake from Fairmont Le Château Frontenac.
In the afternoon, families are invited to the Plains of Abraham, where there’ll be tons of fun for kids. Night-time is music time, at the Edwin-Bélanger Bandstand.
