- SittinonthedockThe Woodlands, TX17 contributionsReally enjoyed our experIence in Quebec. Winter carnival, I think, was a bit over hyped but per That’s due to our age (70’s). Lots of walking between carnival locations and events. Communications about carnival logistics could certainly be improved. All that said, we had a great time and would go again. The funicular Quebec City is a giant rip off and does not stay open as late as it website indicates. Got stuck looking for cab to get back up the hill after being outside for a longtime at night parade.Written February 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- spud0018Mississauga, Canada846 contributionsAnother year of the German Christmas Market in Quebec City - booths are more spread out this year with a new section near the Chateau Frontenac. Still expensive but nice to walk around to see what is being sold. Helps to get you in the holiday spirit for Christmas!Written December 11, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mae MCaledonia, Canada201 contributionsWe arrived in Quebec City and only found out on our arrival that a music festival was under way. Our hotel was smack dab in the middle of activities and the streets around us were closed off. This was not a problem as we were guided by well place road signs to get us to our hotel with no difficulty. Not only did we visit the regular tourist attractions but we spent time at the street vendors for the festival. We did not have tickets for performances but we enjoyed visiting the displays on the street. As well as dancing in the street. There were DJ Booths along the street to help with the part atmosphere. We could hear music coming from the stage venue and everyone seemed to be enjoying it. Although there was a large number of people we did not feel crushed. This festival was an unexpected treat and added to our vacation experience.Written August 7, 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SamchewskiWinnipeg, Canada3 contributionsAmazing show!!! Don’t miss it if you are in Quebec in August! They shoot off fireworks to different types of music each night. It was a wonderful way to end off our night after a busy day.Written August 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MaineGrrrlMaine29 contributionsMarché de Noël is traditional Christmas fun.
Lights, music, food all in Quebec City.
It is whimsical and cheerful.
I would love it if there was more music but otherwise it is fun.
The market has a lot of food and drink vendors (our favorite) but not much else of interest to me but still fun to walk around an see.
The decorations are German inspired. A fun thing to do for Christmas time.
My favorite is the mulled wine, cider, Belgian waffles and baguette with piping hot fondue cheese poured down the center. Oh and the churros are amazing.
You can visit everything at the market in an afternoon so you would want to have other things to do in the city- which there are plenty of things to do.Written November 26, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Super friendly people who are up for a party.
Your need to understand French to fully enjoy the experience.Written August 3, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
