Île en Musique Festival at the Saint-Jean Quay
Quai de Saint-Jean-de-l’Île-d’Orléans
Two free days of Francophone music by the river: the Île en Musique festival takes over the Saint-Jean-de-l’Île-d’Orléans quay on August 21 and 22. Friday, the site opens at 4 PM with a varied food offering and shows start around 6 PM; Saturday, food is available from 11 AM, family entertainment during the day and OpenJam from 2 PM: amateur musicians are invited to bring their instruments. Voilà Québec Council recommendation: take the opportunity to tour the island in the afternoon; our guide to visiting Île d’Orléans maps out the route, and the sunset over the river from the quay is worth the trip alone. Other free outings: our guide to free Quebec.
