Quebec Winter Carnival - Le Bonhomme (not on Canada Day)

While the Quebec Winter Carnival is NOT on Canada Day, it IS a uniquely Canadian celebration! The character Le Bonhomme presides over the festival and occupies the Ice Palace that is constructed each year.

The Winter Carnival generally takes place from late January to mid February each year in Québec City
