Load up on culture and nature in Drummondville

With a vibrant cultural scene and beautiful green spaces, Drummondville offers the perfect balance between culture and nature. Add these places to your map of summer discoveries for a trip to the heart of Quebec!

The Village Québécois d’Antan

Let yourself be transported back to the 19th century to discover the Village Québécois d'Antan, where folksy characters and ancestral settings bring the past to life. In the evening, discover the Parallel Village! As the time machine malfunctions and conjures up astonishing parallel dimensions, you’ll discover places and times in ways as surprising as they are improbable. Expect the unexpected as you explore multimedia installations developed in collaboration with Moment Factory, then treat yourself to a snack or a meal courtesy of the newly enhanced food offerings.

Théâtre de la Dame de Cœur

Renowned for its giant puppet shows, Théâtre de la Dame de Coeur welcomes you 30 minutes from Drummondville for Victor et le cadeau des songes (show presented in French only), a large-scale production that will transport you into a universe of laughter, absurdity and wonder. This rain-sheltered show is a must-see for the whole family, from July 3 to August 24 (Wednesday to Sunday). It’s also a place where you can visit a giant puppet museum, picnic by the river, enjoy a meal at Le Vieux Moulin restaurant or hike a trail on the peninsula.
