Winterlude, which has existed since 1979, has become over the years an international event that attracts thousands of visitors. Jacques-Cartier Park, one of Winterlude’s official sites, offers family activities: entertainment, giant games, musical performances, etc. The park’s main attractions are the giant playground, tube slides, ice slides and giant sculptures, all of which are made of large quantities of snow.
The supplier will be responsible for the construction and maintenance of a giant playground made of snow and intended for the use of children and families at Jacques-Cartier Park in Gatineau as part of Winterlude. There are five snow structures designed for families. These slides include snow sculptures, ice slides and tube slides. The contractor must also, with the assistance of partners, construct three (3) blocks of snow to be used for three-dimensional sculptures.
The tasks and activities are divided into three separate periods: construction, maintenance, and dismantling.
