Petite Nation en fête will transform Thurso into a cultural epicenter from August 14 to 17. This year's festival kicks off with an evening of comedy on August 14, featuring such luminaries as Mégan Brouillard, Laurent Paquin, and headliner Jean-Marc Parent. Known for his charisma, sensitivity and fascinating sense of observation, Jean-Marc Parent, king of the raconteurs-improvisateurs, will captivate audiences with his humorous stories and improvisations. Accompanied by a DJ, he will create a unique and engaging atmosphere, transporting spectators into his world of everyday foibles.
On August 15, rock fans can look forward to performances by Éric Lapointe, Ti-Gars Ménard and Broken Nails. These artists will offer an evening of energetic, spellbinding music, proving once again the diversity and richness of the Quebec music scene.
On August 16, iconic band Les Trois Accords will take the stage, preceded by Rafaëlle Roy and The Rock Show. These artists, with their varied styles, will offer a musical evening that will appeal to all generations.
Finally, on August 17, the stage welcomes Lemay and his musicians for a tribute to Bob Bissonnette, followed by La Chicane and Kaïn, closing the festival on festive and unifying notes.
The Outaouais Wine and Spirits Festival takes place on August 16 and 17. This event is the perfect opportunity for wine and spirits enthusiasts to discover and taste over 200 products from some thirty countries. Under a huge tent, the International Wine Route will take festival-goers on a journey through flavours from all over the world.
The 3-acre site for both festivals has been designed to accommodate nearly 18,000 people. A huge outdoor terrace seating up to 400 people will be set up, offering a convivial and relaxed space to savour the specialities of the street trucks. What's more, the Family Place, with its dozen giant games, will provide entertainment for the youngest members of the family, making Petite Nation en fête a family event par excellence.
