This Magical Quebec Park Makes You Feel Like You're In Whoville From 'The Grinch'

It's only two and a half hours from Montreal!

For all the Christmas fans out there, there's a magical Quebec park that's only 40 minutes from Quebec City and two and a half hours from Montreal. Woodooliparc, located in the Beauce region in the small town of Scott, offers you the "Frima experience," an illuminated walk in a setting that feels straight out of a holiday movie.

With the giant decorations under the snow, the little houses and the glittering ornaments in a pine-scented wooded park, you'll feel like you've been transported to the village of Whoville from The Grinch.

After a nice walk in the woods, you'll be able to warm up by the fire with a boozy coffee from the ice bar, then listen to some sweet musical performances in the evening.

If you get hungry, there's a heated indoor canteen serving snacks. You can also bring your own food.

Narcity Québec reports that the site has added a VIP experience for its 2022 edition. It's basically an opportunity to rent the whole site for yourself for holiday parties. Narcity says it comes with slides, a campfire and entertainment, including fire-breathing performers. There are three VIP opportunities: the three successive Fridays of December 2, 9 and 16, 2022.

This Christmas village opened on November 19 and will run on weekends until December 26. It will be open every day from December 26 to December 31 with the exception of Christmas Day. The price of an adult admission ticket is $28.

Tickets must be bought in advance by reserving a date on their website. The Woodooliparc team advises you to buy your tickets early as the site is very busy at this time of the year.
