We spent a few days visiting many museums and exhibits before seeing the multi-media show. Technically it's fantastic. The subject matter is quiet meaningful if you understand the local history. I loved the sights and sounds. I hope to have another opportunity to see it again so I can catch some of the things I missed. A must for those... More

As you've seen from previous reviews, this is a multi-media presentation set to some sound effects and music that is projected (3D is NOT a correct description) on 302 tightly packed white grain silos on the Quebec waterfront. It is particularly interesting if you've een the silos during the day -- as it is just a worn-looking industrial facility that... More

My husband and I had planned on going down to the waterfront to see this, but after a long day of driving, we just wanted to stay in our room. We were staying in a gorgeous river view room on the 21st floor of the Hilton. The concierge (Stephan) suggested that if we were tired but wanted to see it... More

We were really looking forward to this, and while I appreciate the talent behind putting this together and displaying it we were bored silly pretty quickly. Wish we'd chosen the circ de soleil instead.

What a wonderful multi-image show this is. We had never seen anything like it. Arrive 20 minutes before showtime to get a good seat--earlier during weekends. Lasts about 45 minutes. Don't miss it--kids will love it, too.

A truly unique way to experience Quebec's history. It is on every summer evening on the quays. Do bring a chair and get there early enough to get a good seat. The author is Robert Lepage, one the world famous director of theater and operas.

This event is indescribable. Indeed, the discussions and write ups on travel sites do not do this marvel of light, sound, and technology justice. Even face-to-face conversations with the locals are unable to really convey the experience. I'm afraid that I cannot do any better, but I will try because I feel strongly that it is well worth the visit.... More

On the old silos in the harbourg a black & white 3D moovie is describing the history of quebec. It is a silent moovie but there is some music or noisesrelated to the scenes. It starts at 21h30 in august, take a jacket because it's getting colder in the end. It lasts 45 minutes.
