Travel with Piedmont Opera to historic Quebec City
July 31st- August 4, 2025.
Each summer, Quebec City, North America's only remaining fortified city, hosts the Festival d'opéra de Québec. We will partake in the festival that allows opera lovers to discover and appreciate lyrical art. On the program are flagship works from the repertoire with international artists, outdoor shows, creation, all in French. It is the only opera festival in French in North America. The season will be announced in March 2025 so a detailed agenda is forthcoming.
Enjoy a four- night stay at the Château Frontenac (pictured above). Located near the edge of the promontory of Quebec, the Château Frontenac is situated near several major historic attractions within the historic district of Old Quebec's Upper Town. To the northeast of the hotel lies the Ursulines Monastery of Quebec, a 17th-century monastery founded by a missionary group of Ursuline nuns, and another National Historic Site of Canada. To the south of the hotel lies the Plains of Abraham, a historic area within The Battlefields Park, and the site of the Battle of the Plains of Abraham. Another major attraction south of the hotel is the Citadelle of Quebec, situated at the atop Cap Diamant, an elevated point of the promontory. The Citadelle serves as an active military installation for the Canadian Armed Forces, as well as a secondary official residence for the Canadian monarch and the Governor General of Canada. East of the hotel lies the Terrasse Dufferin, and Old Quebec's Lower Town directly below it.
We will also have a day trip to Montmorency Falls Park. The falls are located on the boundary between the borough of Beauport and Boischatel, about 12 km (7.5 mi) from the heart of old Quebec City. The area surrounding the falls is protected within the Montmorency Falls Park (French: Parc de la Chute-Montmorency). The falls are at the mouth of the Montmorency River where it drops over the cliff shore into the Saint Lawrence River, opposite the western end of the Île d'Orleans. The waterfalls are 83 m (272') tall, a full 30 m (99') higher than Niagara Falls.
After our stop at the falls, we will motor to The Basilica of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré (French: Basilique Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré), a basilica set along the Saint Lawrence River 19 miles east of Quebec City, and one of the six national shrines of Canada.[2] It has been credited by the Catholic Church with many miracles of curing the sick and disabled. It is an important Catholic sanctuary, which receives about a half-million pilgrims each year.
