From Les Gars des Jeux: Happy holidays and off to 2026!

To you, the shadow magicians. To you, the recreation technicians who transform gymnasiums into epic playgrounds. To you, school organizers, who create memories for hundreds of students. To you, municipal managers and event agencies, juggling budgets, weather and impossible deadlines.

The entire Gars des Jeux team would like to take a moment to say: THANK YOU and BRAVO.

We know that December is a marathon month for you. You’ve worked hard to bring magic to your communities and customers. Now it’s time to take a breather, enjoy your loved ones and recharge your batteries.

We wish you a holiday season filled with joy, rest… and a little gaming (for fun this time)!

2026 is fast approaching: are you ready for the final sprint?

In our industry, January is often the calm before the storm. To help you stay one step ahead, here are the 3 key moments to circle in your diaries right now, along with our suggestions for making a splash.

1. Valentine’s Day (February)

February is just around the corner. For high schools, CEGEPs or corporate events, love is great, but duet competition is even better!

• Our suggestions: Our Retro Arcade Stations (Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat) for intense duels, or our sports machines to see which couple has the best team spirit. It’s time to make connections!

2. Spring Break (March)

This is THE big issue for municipalities, day camps and shopping malls. Let’s get moving!

• Our suggestions:

  • Giant Gaming: As seen at our recent events, nothing beats a 4-player Mario Kart tournament on the big screen to keep kids busy for hours.

🎓 3. June: End of School and Neighborhood Festivals

It’s the finish line! Between elementary school fairs, high school after-parties and national holidays, June is the busiest month of the year.

• The challenge: Everyone wants the same dates (the last two Fridays in June).

• Our suggestions for marking the occasion:

  • For schools: Bulle Soccer is an unmissable way to let off steam before the summer (guaranteed success, as at MDJ St-Donat).

  • For Après-Bals: Create a “Lounge & Play” zone with our LED arcade terminals and virtual reality games.

  • For town festivals: our outdoor games of skill and inflatables provide entertainment for the whole family.

We’re here for you

Whether you’re planning a school gymnasium activity or an outdoor festival, Les Gars des Jeux is your trusted logistics partner.

Enjoy the break!
