Autumn and Halloween festivities in Quebec and France

Overview

Various autumn and Halloween festivities are scheduled across Quebec and France for the 2026 season.

In Drummondville, programming includes the second ‘Patrick Senécal Tour’, an electric bus tour featuring commentary from the horror novelist on twelve significant local locations. The Village québécois d’antan is hosting two experiences: a family-oriented traditional celebration and a large-scale, three-kilometer dystopian haunted village themed around a contamination known as ‘X93’.

Other regional events include the fourth edition of L’Étrange Carnaval in Vieux-Québec, featuring magic shows, circus performances, and a vintage market. Vaudreuil-Dorion is hosting an interactive outdoor adventure at Harwood Nature Park using a mobile app for riddles. In Villeneuve-d'Ascq, France, the Musée de plein air will hold a pumpkin festival including a seasonal vegetable market and culinary workshops.
