2008's biggest party will happen in Québec City, which celebrates its 400th birthday with a year-long set of celebrations that should get plenty of attention.

The elegant Canadian city is planning a extensive set of events including a free concert from Celine Dion and other native musicians, countless shows and workships and more commemorative souvenirs than anyone could count.

On one of the anniversary days themselves (3rd-6th July) there will be a massive public performance by Cirque de Soleil featuring more than 1,500 performers.

Regardless of the birthday festivities, there's no shortage of reasons to visit Québec. Canada's most "European" city is a great spot for a city break, full of galleries, historic buildings, quaint winding lanes and an endless supply of delectable French-inspired cuisine.
