An annual multi-arts festival in Laval, launched in 1998, featuring concerts of contemporary music and extensive street arts. Held every May across dozens of city venues, the festival is known for its eclectic lineup (local and international acts, street performances, visual arts installations). It engages tens of thousands of attendees in the town center. It promotes local creativity and community participation in an urban cultural festival 1.
Les 3 Éléphants connects Laval with broader contemporary culture while retaining a local flavor: a portion of the program is dedicated to local artists and volunteers. It has become a hallmark event reflecting the region’s openness to avant-garde street theatre and music, and it turns the city into a live artistic neighborhood for a week.
