Cirque du Soleil crée un nouveau spectacle de rue gratuit à Québec
Amour Cirque du Soleil but put off by the sky-high ticket prices? If you’ll be visiting or settling in Québec this summer, you’re in luck.
Canada’s most famous circus company has created a new street performance, Les Chemins Invisibles (Chemins invisibles), that will roam Quebec City’s Lower Town — gratuitement.
Le mercredi au dimanche soir, à partir de Juin 24 à Septembre 6, plus de 100 circus artists, including performers from Quebec City’s circus school, will travel through the city.
They’ll depart from three points in the Saint-Roch neighborhood:
On Rue Saint-Dominique at the corner of Saint-Roch and de la Reine
From the corner of Dupont and Saint-Vallier East
From the corner of Léperon and Saint-Vallier.
The circus crew will end up at ÃŽlot Fleurie, under the Dufferin-Montmorency Highway (Autoroute 440) overpass, for a free show. And while the performances may not match the top-notch caliber of regular Cirque shows, hé, it’s free!
Performances fois varient en fonction de la saison:
De Juin 24 Ã Juillet 26: 9:10 h
De Juillet 29 à Août 23: 9 h
De Août 26 à Septembre 6: 8:30 h.
Contacter tourisme de Québec for more details about this free event.
Lancé au Québec en Juin, 1984, Cirque du Soleil is celebrating its 25th anniversary cette année.

My husband and I saw this show this past Tuesday night at the highway overpass. It was absolutely wonderful Рsuch amazing talent. Only downside was that we had been walking around the city all day and then stood in line for 1 et 1/2 hours to get in Рthen had to stand through the entire show. Mais ̤a valait le coup. It was a highlight of our vacation. Thanks to the performers and organizers for a fine evening.
