Stade CANAC - Quebec, QC Tickets

Stade Canac is a stadium in Quebec City, Quebec. It is used primarily for baseball and is currently the home stadium for the Quebec Capitales of the independent Frontier League. Originally opened in 1939, it has a capacity of 4,300 and is located within the boundaries of Parc Victoria, a municipal park and recreation area located between the St-Roch district of Quebec City and the south shore of the Saint-Charles River. The ballpark is often informally referred to as simply "Parc Victoria" by local residents even though the field only occupies about a quarter of the park's total area. Modest in capacity relative to the size of the city's population, it has been well-attended during Capitales home games. Construction In 1937, then-Premier of Quebec, Maurice Duplessis, a baseball fan, was invited to throw out the ceremonial first pitch of the Quebec Provincial League season in Trois-Rivières. During his visit, he noticed how severely damaged the stadium had become and decided to allow public funding to be used for the construction of new sport facilities in many Quebec cities. By doing so, he also wanted to create thousands of new jobs during a period of economic struggles. In 1938, following a demand by a group representing the Quebec Athletics, the government agreed to build a new baseball stadium in Quebec City and in early April 1938, construction work began in Parc Victoria. The stadium would be completed a few months later at the end of the 1938 baseball season.

Old Quebec is the city's main attraction, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors can explore the iconic, towering Chateau Frontenac or take a stroll down cobblestone streets surrounded by 17th and 18th century architecture. There are boutiques, art galleries, restaurants, markets, and parks with grassy spots offering incredible year-round views of old city structures. Nearby attractions include Stoneham Mountain Resort, Montmorency Falls Park, and numerous churches offering Sunday mass experiences.

No matter what your interests, Stade CANAC has something for everyone. From live concerts and sporting events to baseball and other recreational activities, it is the perfect spot for local residents and visitors in Quebec City.
