About

The Canadian Francophone Games are among the largest gatherings of Canada’s French-speaking youth.

In addition to encouraging hundreds of young people to exercise their talents in one of three sectors (art, leadership and sport), the Games showcase cultural pride, self-confidence and leadership abilities in a friendly, competitive setting.

The Games are held during the summer months every three years. Over 1,200 participants and more than 750 volunteers are expected for every edition of the Games.

The CFGames are intended to be: 

• a celebration of French speaking youth in Canada;
• an AHA! moment for francophone youth to develop their identity, individually and as a group;
• an excellent opportunity for development, chance to go beyond ones’ expectations;
• an event not to be missed, which every community aspires to host.

The CFGames are organized based on the by and for youth principle and seek to comply with and contribute to the principles of subtainable development.
