    Le Grand Rassemblement

    This is the 5th edition of the Grand Rassemblement, which every year, during Labor Day, attracts thousands of people to the site of Anse-aux-Baleiniers. Inspired by the famous Burning Man event held at the same time in the Nevada desert, the public is invited to a large musical show followed by the lighting of the giant sculpture made from wood debris and lobster traps. After the squid and the shark, what will be the theme of the massive bonfire? Camping on the site is permitted exceptionally during that event.
