The ideal location for events

Centre Vorlage wants to promote and help its community by fostering the Outaouais region’s tourism industry, while stimulating Wakefield’s economic development. To this end, the Centre has created partnerships with other activity and event promoters in the region, and plans to continue to organize sporting and national events.
