For the upcoming 19th edition, Tremblant’s 24h organizers have whipped up a program of musical events that will have you dancing in your (snow) boots all weekend long on December 6, 7, and 8!
Want proof? Alaclair Ensemble, who recently won a Félix award for hip hop album of the year, will headline the Saturday night concert at the foot of the slopes. And other artists – Mélissa Lavergne, Laurence Nerbonne, Antoine Gratton, Damien Robitaille and Marie-Mai – will join in until the mountain trembles from the summit to the base. As always, we’ve lined up DJs for the weekend and the schedule will feature many more outdoor festivities.
We know you’re champing at the bit, so without further ado, here’s the 2019 program!
Friday, December 6

Quartier Tremblant Base Camp, 2nd floor – Les équipiers 1 room
Kids First Tracks – 1:00 – 3:30PM

Join us as the sponsored children make the first tracks in the snow. This is a heartwarming activity in which the kids experience the magic of the 24h and many are putting on skis for the very first time. It’s also an opportunity to chat with them and the event ambassadors, as well as to take some great photos.
BOREALE Party – 9:00PM – 1:00AM
Grand Manitou lodge – Mountain summit
The party that kicks off the weekend for participants! Great music provided by DJs Vinny Barrucco and Adam Greenberg with an appearance by Antoine Gratton.
