Six days of festivities
Since 1981, the Fête du Lac des Nations Promutuel Assurance has been in the hearts of Sherbrooke residents. The program includes diversified musical shows on several stages, a multitude of family activities, a selection of local food concessions and a series of pyromusical shows, not to mention the many surprises awaiting festival attendees!
The organization’s mission is to create a major annual event in the center of Sherbrooke, to leave its mark on the tourism and event industry in Quebec.
