Le Panorama completes a series of spaces dedicated to relaxation and informal exchanges in a setting of some of Quebec's flagship experiences. These spaces reflect the Palais' desire to build bridges between business tourism and leisure tourism.

"Le Panorama showcases our flamboyant fall, a venue for a wide variety of outdoor activities. It's another excellent way to promote the best of Québec while raising awareness of eco-responsible practices and the importance of preserving biodiversity,” said Caroline Proulx, Minister of Tourism and Minister Responsible for the Lanaudière Region. “Bravo to the designers of this magnificent space that will contribute to giving business tourists the desire to explore Québec and to increasing tourism's economic spinoffs!"

This project is aligned with an expanding trend in tourism: to offer visitors, in search of meaning, unique and authentic moments while in Quebec attending an event.

Le Panorama features a bicycle path crisscrossing Quebec's roadways, an invitation to enjoy responsible hiking, or real-life decors inspired by thrill-seeking adventures, such as via ferratas and ziplines.

"The third stage in this partnership seeks once again to give business travellers from around the world an opportunity to experience Quebec in a singular fashion,” Frédéric Dubé, Interim CEO of the Alliance de l'industrie touristique du Quebec.

In March 2023, the project's two partners announced their plan to create three informal gathering spaces that will showcase the diversity of Quebec's tourism offer. Evoking an après-ski ambience, La Station was the first space to be introduced, followed a few weeks later by the inauguration of Le Saint-Laurent, offering an immersion into the emblematic river's marine life. In just a few months, these spaces became an integral part of the client experience at the Palais.
