"St-Jean Baptiste is the national holiday of Québec" St-Jean-Baptiste Tip by Pierre_Rouss

St-Jean-Baptiste, Montreal: 4 reviews and 7 photos

St-Jean Baptiste is the national holiday of Québec<BR>
There is a big parade each year (back 4-5 years ago after an absence of 10-15 years). Floats, fanfarre, etc...
For the second year, the parade is at night.

And I am unsure why but, now we refer to the St-Jean Baptiste as the Fête National.

Review Helpfulness: 1.5 out of 5 stars
