The TOHU, Québec’s first LEED gold-certified building, is also the only venue in North America that specializes in the contemporary circus arts. It offers cultural, recreational and environmental education programming.

As the park’s reception centre, it offers interpretive services to park visitors, including Simbioz, which traces the history and transformation of the park to the present day, as well as temporary exhibitions and a program of activities and guided tours through which you can discover this unique park.
