Les beaux dimanches au musée is a series of free concerts offered as part of the Ville de Gatineau’s summer programming! Bring your lawn chairs and enjoy the music in the gardens of the Inn.
This year we are again offering the opportunity to have tea in the museum gardens, accompanied by some live background music. The price is $12 per person, and it includes a drink of your choice (tea, coffee, lemonade) and a scone prepared by La femme à marier & cie served with butter and jam. Each Sunday, we will have 5 tables, accommodating a maximum of 4 people per table. Advance reservations are required as space is very limited.
Here is the schedule for the afternoon:
Your table will be ready for your arrival at 1:30pm. You will be served and the concert will take place from 2:00 to 3:00 pm. Afterwards, a free guided tour of the museum is planned starting at 3:15 pm. Your tea reservation does not automatically include the museum tour, which must be booked separately. Please note that the tour is only offered in French, you can book here.
