Gatineau, November 21, 2024
The Grands feux du Casino Lac-Leamy team is delighted to announce the launch of advance ticket sales for the 28th edition of the event, which runs from July 30 to August 16, 2025. Festival-goers can take advantage of special rates by purchasing their tickets now on feux.qc.ca, before the 2025 rates come into effect next January.
Les Grands feux is also taking the opportunity to unveil its new favorite cause: Espoir Rosalie, an organization dedicated to supporting single mothers and their children. This partnership will raise essential funds to strengthen the services offered to families in the region, and raise community awareness of the challenges they face.
A partnership of Hope
Established in 2024, the Grands feux Cause chouchou initiative aims to actively contribute to a regional charitable cause through outreach and fundraising.
Espoir Rosalie will benefit from the support of Les Grands feux through :
- Optional donations on the online box office when purchasing tickets
- On-site collections at all points of sale during the event
- Portion of profits generated by the sale of an original story created by the Grands feux team
- Visibility equivalent to that of major partners
- Creation of content promoting the organization and its projects on social networks and in Grands feux newsletters.
This collaboration reflects our deep desire to actively contribute to our community, while inspiring festival-goers to support local mutual aid.
About Espoir Rosalie
Espoir Rosalie is a non-profit community organization whose mission is to welcome single mothers and their children with respect and without judgment, to help them develop their parental, personal, social and financial autonomy. Espoir Rosalie’s team offers parenting skills workshops, isolation-busting activities such as outings and collective kitchens, mother-child activities, drop-in daycare services, as well as individual follow-up for mothers and children. Espoir Rosalie also offers material support to families through its food assistance system, its free mini-friperie and its holiday sponsorship program.
A foretaste of the 28th edition
The full program will be unveiled next spring, but festival-goers – more than 40,000 every year – can already look forward to the must-see acts that have made Les Grands feux such a success:
- breathtaking pyromusical shows;
- the contribution of multiple local chefs and microbrewers to delight their taste buds;
- immersive digital art and multimedia experiences that push the boundaries of creativity.
Quotes
“We’re honoured to have been chosen as the Grands feux 2025 cause chouchou. For organizations like ours, this kind of initiative is a source of hope, as it raises public awareness of the issues faced by single-parent families, gives us exposure to a wider network, and provides direct funding for the services we offer. We’d like to thank the entire Grands feux team for their support and commitment to the region’s non-profit organizations,” says Émilie Charette, Executive Director of Espoir Rosalie.
“For over 25 years, we’ve been proud to light up the skies of the Outaouais region and bring people together with shows that create a collective sense of wonder. Adding a favorite cause to our mission, like Espoir Rosalie this year, allows us to have an even more positive and concrete impact on local families, and that warms our hearts. We’re looking forward to seeing the public again next summer,” says Julie Moffatt, President and CEO of Les Grands feux du Casino Lac-Leamy.
