The Games of la Francophonie are an international cultural and sporting event in which the states and governments of La Francophonie participate. They are the only major international games where sports and cultural activities are presented in a comparable competitive context, meaning that medals are awarded to both athletes and artists.

The VI Games of la Francophonie will be held in Beirut, Lebanon in 2009. New Brunswick artists who wish to participate in the cultural competitions will be able to submit an application form to the Arts Development Branch which is coordinating the cultural delegation from New Brunswick.
