| 2024-02-02 | 18:00 - 22:00 | Canadian Museum of History | Icebergs are ancient ice formations shaped by time and the elements, and they make unique sounds. As water seeps into their cracks and crevices, icebergs resonate like enormous pipe organs, their tones shifting and transforming as the ice melts. Inspired by these colossal natural musical instruments, the Iceberg installation consists of a series of illuminated metal arches that each make a particular sound. Arranged to form a tunnel, the arches beckon you to enter and listen to — and even play — the giant organ. A thought-provoking but playful piece about climate change.

| 2024-02-09 | 19:00 - 21:30 | Downtown Rideau | It’s no longer a secret that Toronto continues to be an incubator of raw, unique talent, and rapper/songwriter DijahSB is the latest artist taking her brand and story to the world. Inspirational without being preachy, her music is a glimpse into the mind of a Black non-binary artist rapping her way through hope, heartbreak and breakthroughs. Her fascination with the unguarded creative processes of Kid Cudi and Lupe Fiasco birthed a desire to express herself freely and unapologetically. With every release, Dijah moves closer to their dream of living comfortably, happily and being a voice for the LGBTQ+ community. The Zimbabwe-born Toronto rapper with a fairly rags-to-riches story revealed herself to the world with the release of her debut EP Hood Avant Garde in April 2021. Her break out single Bold landed Charmaine the 2022 Juno Award for Rap Single of the Year, making her the first woman in history to win in that category. | Paid event DijahSB + Charmaine with Lia Kloud | Friday, February 9, 2024 from 7:00 pm to 9:30 pm | 2SLGBTQI+ | Shows and street artists | National Arts Centre, 1 Elgin Street, Ottawa, ON | Hip Hop Culture Takes Centre Stage with the NAC's inaugural Hip Hop Theatre Festival |

| 2024-02-02 | 18:30 - 19:30 | Elsewhere in Ottawa-Gatineau | The Embassy of France in Canada and the City of Gatineau invite you to a light show projected on the Montcalm Bridge (known as “the Eiffel Bridge”) in Gatineau, every Winterlude weekend (February 2nd to 19th), from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. Let yourself be swept away by this dazzling show, a tribute to Gustave Eiffel. Come and witness the metamorphosis of the Montcalm Bridge with a choreography of light that will take you through an unforgettable story. The 10-minute show will run continuously for an hour every weekend, offering spectators a unique experience and a whole new look at Gatineau's Montcalm Bridge, which spans the Ruisseau de la Brasserie. Recalling the Eiffel Tower and its twinkling lights, the Eiffel Bridge illumination invites you to discover (or rediscover) Gustave Eiffel's legacy in Canada. The light show, titled (Echos of the Tower) spotlights an unusual and little-known trace of Gustave Eiffel in the national capital region: as a tribute to the strong ties between France, Quebec and Canada, former mayor of Paris Jacques Chirac donated a beam from the Eiffel Tower in 1990, when the Montcalm Bridge was rebuilt in the “Eiffel style.” Echos of the Tower is an original creation designed by French multimedia studio AV-Extended, internationally renowned for its monumental lighting design and immersive digital art projects. In December 2023, as part of the commemoration marking the centennial of Gustave Eiffel's death, the studio contributed to a sound and light show projected on the Eiffel Tower and broadcast on French television and across social media. The lighting design for Échos de la Tour was carried out in close collaboration with a Canadian technical partner, Montreal-based Solotech. In both its design and production, this France-Canada project is a unique tribute to Gustave Eiffel's legacy in Canada and offers an exceptional cultural attraction for all. This project received generous support from Canadian Heritage, Tourisme Outaouais and Vision Centre-Ville Gatineau. | Eiffel Bridge Illumination | Friday, February 2, 2024 from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm | Families and kids, Adults | Shows and street artists | Montcalm bridge, rue Montcalm, Gatineau, QC | Come to Gatineau every weekend this Winterlude for an unforgettable night time spectacle!

| 2024-02-19 | 18:30 - 19:30 | Elsewhere in Ottawa-Gatineau | The Embassy of France in Canada and the City of Gatineau invite you to a light show projected on the Montcalm Bridge (known as “the Eiffel Bridge”) in Gatineau, every Winterlude weekend (February 2nd to 19th), from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. Let yourself be swept away by this dazzling show, a tribute to Gustave Eiffel. Come and witness the metamorphosis of the Montcalm Bridge with a choreography of light that will take you through an unforgettable story. The 10-minute show will run continuously for an hour every weekend, offering spectators a unique experience and a whole new look at Gatineau's Montcalm Bridge, which spans the Ruisseau de la Brasserie. Recalling the Eiffel Tower and its twinkling lights, the Eiffel Bridge illumination invites you to discover (or rediscover) Gustave Eiffel's legacy in Canada. The light show, titled (Echos of the Tower) spotlights an unusual and little-known trace of Gustave Eiffel in the national capital region: as a tribute to the strong ties between France, Quebec and Canada, former mayor of Paris Jacques Chirac donated a beam from the Eiffel Tower in 1990, when the Montcalm Bridge was rebuilt in the “Eiffel style.” Echos of the Tower is an original creation designed by French multimedia studio AV-Extended, internationally renowned for its monumental lighting design and immersive digital art projects. In December 2023, as part of the commemoration marking the centennial of Gustave Eiffel's death, the studio contributed to a sound and light show projected on the Eiffel Tower and broadcast on French television and across social media. The lighting design for Échos de la Tour was carried out in close collaboration with a Canadian technical partner, Montreal-based Solotech. In both its design and production, this France-Canada project is a unique tribute to Gustave Eiffel's legacy in Canada and offers an exceptional cultural attraction for all. This project received generous support from Canadian Heritage, Tourisme Outaouais and Vision Centre-Ville Gatineau. | Eiffel Bridge Illumination | Monday, February 19, 2024 from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm | Families and kids, Adults | Shows and street artists | Montcalm bridge - rue Montcalm, Gatineau, QC | Come to Gatineau every weekend this Winterlude for an unforgettable night time spectacle!

| 2024-02-08 | 20:00 - 21:30 | Downtown Rideau | Set in the modern era, the show takes audiences back to hip-hop's earliest days in the 1970s, weaving the roots of the music and culture the brothers both loved with satire and tragedy-fuelled introspection. Expanding on his initial 15-minute version first performed while he attended the National Theatre School of Canada, creator and actor Sébastien Heins uses hip-hop, R&B, soul, funk, and gospel to tell a story of loss, identity and brotherly love with cleverly-crafted lyrics and humour. The 70-minute show was presented by b Current across Canada at the High Performance Rodeo in Calgary, Chinook Festival in Edmonton, Ottawa Undercurrents and more, internationally to Mumbai and Bangalore, India. It won its author the Best Emerging Artist Award at New York City’s United Solo theatre festival. | Paid event Brotherhood: The Hip Hopera | Thursday, February 8, 2024 from 8:00 pm to 9:30 pm | Adults | Shows and street artists | National Arts Centre, 1 Elgin Street, Ottawa, ON | After twin rap stars CashMoney & MoneyPussy get into a car accident that kills one of the siblings, this unique one-man production follows the other as he grapples with his new identity and life outside of a close-knit duo. |

| 2024-02-02 | 11:00 - 21:00 | Sparks Street | Winterlude Ice-Carving Showcase, presented by Tim Hortons, features Ross Baisas and brother Antonio Baisas as they create a monumental ice sculpture to pay homage to the First Nations. The Ojibwe Spirit Horse are Canada’s only Indigenous horse breed. Our elders’ teachings share that these ponies once roamed free across Turtle Island (North America), living in partnership with our Indigenous communities like the deer and moose. The last four specimens of the breed were rescued on the traditional territories of Lac La Croix First Nation, in Ontario. The woodland style of art captured in this carving is inspired by a long- time knowledge keeper of the ponies, artist Rhonda Snow, whose lifelong work has been to preserve the endangered breed. The sacred ponies are resilient with almost 200 of them now found living with caretakers across Canada and US, including the Mādahòkì Farm in Ottawa. | Ojibwe Spirit Horses, inspired by Ronda Snow | Friday, February 2, 2024 from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm | Indigenous cultures, Families and kids | Exhibitions and urban art | Sparks Street, between Elgin St. and Metcalfe St. | Winterlude Ice-Carving Showcase, presented by Tim Hortons, features Ross Baisas and brother Antonio Baisas as they create a monumental ice sculpture to pay homage to the First Nations. |

| 2024-02-02 | 18:00 - 22:00 | Sparks Street | The majesty of woodland animals is celebrated in this striking metal sculpture, which is based on Mohawk artist Adam Monture’s series of paintings titled, “The Woodlands After Dark.” His painting of “The Bear” inspired the reimagining of it as a three-dimensional illuminated sculpture, co-designed by Jeremy Freiburger, a creator, fabricator and public art consultant. This aluminum sculpture is lined with LED lighting so that it comes alive at night. Adam Monture resides on the Six Nations reserve where he resides with his wife and five children. A carpenter by trade, Monture usually works in brightly coloured acrylic paint.
