Located on the banks of the St. Lawrence River in Québec City’s Old Port, the Musée de la civilisation is the perfect place to spend a pleasant family outing filled with discovery and wonder.

This summer, discover original exhibitions and take part in amazing experiences that have a few surprises in store for you! Learn more about Quebec and the people who live there with In Other Words, Québec; explore the many sources of pleasure through a lively and playful journey with Pleasures (starting June 17, 2026); and let yourself be transported by the fascinating phenomenon of crowds with Crowds: Humans in Interaction.

In addition, a diverse program of activities is offered all summer long for families: guided tours, workshops, shows, lectures, and more!
