Live from our stage located on the finish line, enjoy a colorful show with Rose and David, and Samuel Lussier, who will be opening. With his guitar and his gentle madness, Rose and his sidekick David serve up jazzy folk-pop as surprising as a mystery cake. Each song is a feast of humor, audacity, and contagious energy. Under the name The Lost French Guy, Samuel Lussier shares a folk-country inspired by his travels, between the streets of Tennessee and the beaches of the Caribbean. A wind of elsewhere blows in each of his songs.

The team behind Le Nordais and the Défi des ancestors offers your little ones a fun and safe obstacle course experience.

Designed for ages 4-13, younger kids will gain confidence as they complete physical challenges like running, jumping, climbing and crawling. The older ones will also find what they are looking for in this set of varied and impressive obstacles. The timing option will also be available on site for children who wish to compare their time with other children their age. Even if the main objective of the race is fun, don’t think that what awaits them will be too easy! Your little stars will certainly gain courage, agility and mental strength.

Parents and friends are welcome to accompany and encourage the mini athletes in a family atmosphere. All children from 4 to 13 years old can participate, without any special preparation. So they don’t need to be brave or in great shape as these traits will develop after they participate. If your children like to move, have fun and play outside, “Les P’tits Bûcherons” will certainly please them.

Since 2020, 15,000 young people across the province have taken up the challenge. Show us what kind of wood you’re warming up!

Many activities are in place at the finish line to entertain our future athletes : Inflatable games, face painting and more.

ON RESERVATION: You are invited to participate in yoga sessions, accessible to all,at the 7e ciel room of the Delta Mont-Saint-Anne Hotel (second floor).

“When I teach yoga, I like to connect with people. I want them to live a benevolent experience, to make them laugh, to allow them to find their child’s heart. It is important that everyone feels good about their practice. This is why I offer a vinyasa yoga accessible to all, taking care to incorporate some challenges for the regulars. I invite participants forget the rest of their day and together we create a rewarding moment for both the physical and the mental. I look forward to guide you and learn from you!”

Live from our stage located at the finish line, we are honored to welcome the one and only Pépé and his guitar. Pépé has been tasked with entertaining young and old alike just before the start of the 1km Family race, and he has quite a show in store for us!

He will share with you the secret to happiness and take you through the full range of emotions. You’ll surely leave with a smile on your face, saying, “That’s exactly what I needed.”
