RADIO-CANADA CHILDREN’S VILLAGE | FREE
Every day from 3 p.m. on weekdays, from 1:30 p.m. on weekends
At Esplanade Tranquille – from July 15 to 20, 2025
Located on the Parterre of the Quartier des Spectacles, between the TD Stage and the VIP area, the Radio-Canada Children’s Village is a multifunctional space where you can rest and enjoy some shade thanks to colorful wooden seating cubes branded with Radio-Canada and available parasols. Aspiring musicians can unleash their creativity on the Radio-Canada-colored public piano.
Children can also enjoy playing with the giant games available on-site and get their faces painted from Tuesday to Friday, 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., and on the weekend from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m.
On Thursday, July 17, the Radio-Canada Children’s Village will become a space of community exchange “by and for the community,” as members of Radio-Canada’s Afro Committee will be on site to interview Festival artists.
