Special Firework: «Je me souviens»

This year’s opening performance celebrates our collective strength and determination as well as the joy that comes from a long-awaited gathering. 

As part of this unique and colourful choreography, drones will paint the night sky with incredibly choreographed patterns and images, telling the story of the challenges we have faced, the resilience we have demonstrated and, ultimately, the togetherness with which we are rewarded.   

This breathtaking performance is set to the music and lyrics of our Québec artists—crossing decades from Jean-Pierre Ferland and Leonard Cohen, to Coeur de Pirate and Marie-Mai.
