26 December 2024 to 3 January 2025

This holiday season, Pointe-à-Callière, Montreal’s Archaeology and History Complex, transforms into a magical place with a variety of free family activities offered with Holidays on the Pointe.

Who is the real Santa Claus?

From December 26 to 30, meet Santas from around the world. They'll take you on a journey, interpreting the Christmas legends of their homelands with stories that will appeal to the whole family. You might even discover who the real Santa Claus is!

Creative workshops

From December 26 to 30, 2024, and from January 2 to 3, 2025, take part in different creative workshops. From creating your own oracle card to exploring herbalism through watercolour, the whole family can express their creative side this holiday season.

During your visit to the Museum, take the opportunity to stroll through the magical decorations set up on Place Royale, with gleaming trees, welcoming wooden huts, and welcoming benches, the perfect combination to immerse yourself in the holiday spirit with a festive atmosphere.

The holiday programming of Pointe-à-Callière is presented with the support of the SDC Vieux-Montréal as part of the Programme de soutien à l'offre culturelle du Vieux-Montréal.
