Festival Québec en toutes lettres

The 17th edition of Québec en toutes lettres is inspired by engagement, activism, and hope. Drawing on the words of author and poet Marie-Célie Agnant “ce cri qui jamais ne s’endort” (Seul demeure le cri, Éditions du Noroît, 2025), the festival’s diverse programming will highlight the causes that move us, the struggles we face, the hope that gives us the strength to carry on, and the powerful impact of literature and literary arts on our lives. Held over eleven days each fall, the festival offers a wide audience engaging and surprising literary arts events. Performances, talks, youth activities, and public art, experience literature in new and exciting ways. Founded in 2010, the festival has become a must-attend event in the literary scene and a signature happening in Quebec City, a UNESCO City of Literature.
