The Grand Banquet de l'extraordinaire - Fondation du CHUM

The Grand Banquet de l’extraordinaire

Signature event of the CHUM Foundation, le Grand Banquet de l’extraordinaire brings together several hundred attendees each year from influential circles—business movers and shakers, renowned physicians, public figures, and engaged members of the community.

Held in a festive, elegant, and inclusive atmosphere, this edition will honor the exceptional work of the Severe burn and intensive care unit.

This event will raise crucial funds to give the Centre hospitalier de l’Université de Montréal (CHUM) the means to revolutionize healthcare by accelerating its expertise and technological development.

The previous edition was sold out — book quickly to secure your place at this unique event!
