In addition, two performances are presented at dawn, one by Laurence Jalbert and the other by Matt Holubowski (Musical Matinee ticket required to access the show)! Important reminder: there will be a change in the price of tickets on July 31st. Now is the time to book to save over 17% on your stay! Reservations at fmg2022.com.

Loads of activities to do
On the outskirts of La Baie Park, you'll find Jacques-Cartier Street, known for its beauty and its many restaurants overlooking the Ottawa River. On foot or by bike, the bike path along the street will take you to Lac-Leamy Park, a true oasis with a magnificent beach, volleyball courts, a picnic area and water sports. Also accessible by bike, bus or car, downtown Gatineau has a wealth of restaurants and bars with a distinctly urban feel! Visit Canada's most popular museum, the Canadian Museum of History, and its newly reopened Children's Museum. Soar from Ottawa to Gatineau on the interprovincial zip line or seek out original works of art on the Cultural Trail. Or simply cross one of the bridges and you're in Canada's Capital!
