Pentathlon des neiges Sun Life — Québec

The festival

On the Plains of Abraham, the Pentathlon des neiges Sun Life links five disciplines without the clock ever stopping: cycling, running, cross-country skiing, skating and snowshoeing. Billed as Canada's largest winter multisport event, it can be raced solo, in tandem or in teams of 3 to 5.

Families, school groups, corporate teams, amateur athletes and elites all take part, with challenges for every level, including a new winter triathlon challenge in 2027. Spectators attend free.
