[Saint-Placide] Située dans les Laurentides, offre un spectacle haut en couleur dans un environnement arctique enchanteur. Conçu au départ pour susciter l’intérêt des touristes et faire connaître notre coin de «pays», le Festi-Vent sur glace est vite devenu l’événement hivernal à ne pas manquer, tant pour les amateurs de cerfs-volants que pour les profanes. Constitué en organisme sans but lucratif en 2004, le Festi-Vent sur glace a atteint une notoriété qui a largement dépassé les frontières de la M.R.C. de Deux-Montagnes et il est reconnu pour être le plus grand festival hivernal de cerfs-volants au Canada. Mentionnons qu’en 2006, le Festi-Vent sur glace s’est vu décerner le lauréat régional des Grands Prix du tourisme dans la catégorie budget d'exploitation de moins de 1 M $.
