This event is a valued opportunity to take stock of completed projects and exchange on the network's development outlook. The Fédération will also take this occasion to celebrate its 15th anniversary. In addition to the annual general meeting, speakers will be on hand to present their innovative initiatives in the areas of tourism, hospitality and sustainable development. Representatives from Tourisme Lanaudière, Parc national du Mont-Tremblant, as well as the Mayor of Saint-Donat will share their expertise with attendees.

The conference will also be the occasion for our Prix Inspiration Gala, taking place on Thursday, May 28 at the Auberge L'Étoile du Nord. During this celebration, the award recipients, selected through a competition organized by the Fédération des Villages-relais in collaboration with the Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité durable (MTMD), will be unveiled. As a reminder, the Prix Inspiration recognizes municipalities and businesses that have signed the quality charter and carried out impactful projects reflecting the vitality of our regions.

These three days of activities are made possible thanks to the financial support of the City of Saint-Donat, the Minister of Tourism and Minister responsible for the Lanaudière region, Ms. Caroline Proulx, the Ministère des Transports et du Développement durable, and the MRC de Matawinie.
