From October 9 to 12, 2026, Québec City will host the third edition of this free event dedicated to street arts. Presented by the City of Québec, the festival transforms the streets, parks, and public squares of Old Québec into open-air stages where artists and audiences come together in a lively and unique setting.
Over four days, visitors can discover an eclectic lineup of spontaneous and surprising performances designed for audiences of all ages. As they explore the streets and public spaces, visitors may encounter artists bringing different disciplines to life, including dance, singing, music, circus arts, and theatre.
Taking place throughout the afternoon and evening, the performances offer a different way to experience the performing arts, without the need to attend a traditional theatre or concert venue. Each performance adds to the lively and festive atmosphere of Old Québec's historic streets and public spaces.
Whether you are already a fan of street arts or experiencing this type of performance for the first time, the event offers an accessible and welcoming cultural experience for both children and adults. It is a great opportunity to explore Old Québec, discover talented artists, and be surprised by performances that appear where you least expect them.
