6 Fall Festivals Happening Around Quebec To Celebrate Your Favourite Season

Mark your calendars! 🍂
Contributing Writer

Is there anything better than fall? We totally agree — Not much! And what better way to celebrate than by attending a fall festival in Quebec? Since we know festivals are Montrealers' favourite ways to celebrate just about anything.

Even though fall is such a short, but sweet season, that doesn't mean there's no time to make the most of one of the most magical times of the year.

All throughout Quebec, you'll find some pretty amazing events that allow you to see the leaves, try some delicious fall treats and get outside to enjoy that crisp, fall air.

Some of the festivals require tickets and others are completely free. But they're all so worth it.

Plus they're in some of Quebec's most spectacular regions, like the Eastern Townships and Charlevoix to name a few.

And be sure to check each festival to see if pups are welcome, too. Because even our furry friends love this time of year.

Just remember to mark all of these festivals in your calendar because just like a fall leaf, they'll come and go before you know it...
