mount Sutton 2026 Autumn Festival: A PROGRAM tailored for active outdoor enthusiasts

Mount SUTTON announces the return of its unmissable Fall Festival , which will once again unfold this year amidst the colours of the mountain over 5 weekends, from September 19 to October 18, including Monday, October 12, Thanksgiving Day .

Between adrenaline, culture, and the great outdoors, the 2026 program and new features focus more than ever on dynamic and trendy activities. Tailor-made for mountain biking enthusiasts, trail runners, and anyone who thrives on elevation gain—including, of course, skiers who are already eagerly awaiting the mountain's opening with its new chairlift for a new ski season and who are taking advantage of the presale to get their pass at a discounted price!

A mountain that never sleeps

The summer season's flagship activities remain on the program: mountain biking, the giant zipline, the zipline with turns, chairlift rides, and disc golf continue to bring the mountain to life, as do summit camping and overnight RV stays for those who want to extend the experience until sunrise. A major new feature for summer 2026: the fun trail inaugurated this year officially begins its first fall season, offering everyone a new way to discover the mountain.

An opening that sets the tone

The festival will kick off with an original opening music set on Saturday, the result of a unique collaboration between a DJ and a screen-printing professional. Festival-goers are invited to bring their own t-shirts to have them printed in the festival's colors, live and on-site—a personalized souvenir to take home.

The festival's musical and artistic programming also focuses on the next generation, with new artists to discover, as well as familiar faces: Marily Dorion and Édouard Lagacé, both former Star Académie contestants, who will join the program.

Getting ready for the ski season by running

True to its mission as a four-season destination for active people, Mont SUTTON is innovating this year with a pre-ski running clinic led by a kinesiologist, offered on October 3 and 18—a golden opportunity for skiers to prepare their bodies before their first runs. Trail running enthusiasts won't be left out either: the Trail Series is making a stop at Mont SUTTON for experienced runners, while the local trail running club is offering an introduction to trail running for those curious to try it out.

Wine, yoga and good causes

The Wine Route will return to the mountain, with new partner vineyards to discover. Yoga enthusiasts can take a deep breath every Saturday at an altitude of 680 meters, near the tree frog sculpture, just above the top of chairlift II. The final Saturday of the festival will be particularly special, as participants are invited to wear pink for the summit yoga session, which will be a fundraiser for the breast cancer foundation.

The favorites are back

The activities that marked the 2025 edition are back in full force: the conference and photo workshop with renowned photographer Bernard Brault, the art tables for children led by artist Lysanne Sabourin, as well as the many guided hikes, including those carried out in collaboration with the Sutton Natural Environment Park and those to discover mountain sculptures, led by ambassador guides.

Something for everyone, for every rhythm

Between adrenaline, culture, gastronomy and well-being, the Mont SUTTON 2026 Autumn Festival confirms its signature: a generous program that has something to stimulate families as well as athletes, and make everyone want to get some fresh air this fall.
