July 1, 2 and 3, 2016: three full days of activities!

Saint-Lazare will welcome thousands of residents, visitors and tourists for the Canada Day celebrations followed by a two-day equestrian event. These 3 days of festivities will take place each year in various venues and will showcase all facets of the horse. The programme will feature educational workshops, hugging sessions, shows and equestrian sport demos which this year will include horse-ball and carriage driving demos. And the Festival will have the privilege of welcoming distinguished guests such as the flamboyant Knights of Valour jousting troupe, jousting in Québec for the first time and singer Ariane Moffatt. From chainsaw wood carving to mechanical bull riding, our programme will dazzle all festival goers!
