This fall, make the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec a must-see stop during your Québec City getaway.

Beginning September 4, 2026, discover Hidden Treasure. A Century of Mystery, featuring fifteen jewels connected to the Habsburg family, including the legendary 137-carat Florentine Diamond, and a remarkable story with deep ties to Québec City.

Starting October 22, the Espace Riopelle – Pavillon Michael Audain will open its doors with four inaugural exhibitions. From October 22 to 25, celebrate its grand opening through an exceptional artistic program.

And be captivated by Hyperrealism. This Is Not a Body. Three exhibitions, three stories, one invitation: see differently.
