Cultural Events and Outdoor Activities
Offering a wide range of recreational activities throughout the year, Parc Lafontaine is also home to the outdoor Theatre de Verdure that plays host to a variety of cultural events and performances during the summer months. Covering an expanse of more than 40 hectares, the park attracts thousands of Montrealers and tourists alike. Featuring two man-made ponds used as well-lit skating rinks with music during the winter, the park also has a skate rental kiosk.

Find Your Path
With a network of footpaths and bicycle trails, the park offers numerous places for visitors to enjoy a picnic or any other number of outdoor sports in the spring, summer and fall. In the winter, the paths are transformed into cross-country ski and snowshoeing trails. There are also two hockey rinks available to those who want to push a puck around along or get a game going with friends.

Want More? Ok!
There is also a winter-centric theatre called the Centre Culturel Calixa-Lavallée. Art courses are offered here as well as several theatre productions during the winter season (it is too hot to perform in the space in the summer). With a list of well-equipped facilities that includes a wading pool for kids and two petanque fields, as well as 14 tennis courts, a mini soccer field, five baseball fields, two belvederes, two sand volleyball courts and play areas for children, the possibilities for fun are endless.
