Host City
The 9th CIC will be again hosted in Quebec City, a city steeped in history, with its stunning architecture, winding back streets, and unique charm. Your imagination will be captivated by the sights and sounds of Haute-Ville. Visit the Basilique-Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Québec, the first parish church in North America in 1664 and view the city from the Capital Observatory, which rises 31 floors high in the Hôtel du Parlement.

On the outskirts of the city, the Musée du Fort recreates the six sieges of Québec City and the famous battle on the Plains of Abraham. The highlights of Québec City's military history are presented using the latest audiovisual technology and a spectacular model.
