Friday, October 16 to Sunday, October 18, 2026
Quebec City slows down the clock this weekend, and candlelight is doing most of the work. Candlelight: Les Quatre Saisons de Vivaldi and Candlelight: Queen et The Beatles both light up the Musée de la civilisation on Saturday, proof that classical strings and stadium anthems can share the same room. Families get their own spectacle too: L'Horizon de Khéops turns Laurier Québec into a pyramid adventure, while AURA wraps Église Saint-Roch in an immersive show on Friday that trades pews for projections. Between the concerts and the kid-friendly outings, this reads as a music-heavy, family-friendly weekend with room for something quieter too.
Nine dated outings make up the list from Friday, October 16 to Sunday, October 18, 2026, and beyond those, a handful of anytime activities, from eBike tours of Montmorency Falls to goat hiking, let you build your own schedule whenever the mood strikes. Plenty of things to do in Quebec this weekend, and plenty of reasons to grab tickets now. Scroll down and pick your night.
