The Eighth Annual PCVA Conference

What a great way to kick off the 2025 summer season anticipating the PCVA Eighth Annual Conference in beautiful Québec City. Plan to join us November 10-13, 2025 to celebrate our industry and learn from transport and tourism experts, share business strategies, and develop new partnerships.

An opening evening reception will be held on Monday at the hotel to get together, socialize, and network with your industry colleagues. Please join us from 6:00pm to 9:00pm. It’s a lovely way to ease yourself into the conference. The Monday evening welcome reception includes an open invitation to local passenger & commercial vessel operators in and around the Québec City area, so you’ll see some new and familiar faces. Come and join us for a few drinks and some hors d’oeuvres.

For those arriving early on or before Monday, November 10, we have planned a city tour with Les Tours du Vieux Québec Inc. A bus tour ticket (add-on section) must be purchased to attend.

This 2-hour bus tour begins at 3:00pm and will take you through the charming historic district of the city, known as Old Québec. You will have the opportunity to discover the city’s main points of interest, such as Place Royale, Place d’Armes, and Terrasse Dufferin, the Latin Quarter, the Plains of Abraham, the fortifications of Québec, the famous Château Frontenac, the National Assembly of Québec, the Notre-Dame de Québec Basilica-Cathedral, and City Hall, while listening to interesting commentary on the history and culture of Québec City.

The bus will stop at Place Royale, where you can hop off to take photos and stroll through the cobblestone streets of the historic district. You’ll also be able to enjoy breathtaking views of the St. Lawrence River from the bus, giving you a unique glimpse of the city. In short, this bus tour is a great way to discover the charms of Québec City in a minimal amount of time.
