Montreal s Olympic Park saw a record number of visitors to its grounds on Sunday the biggest crowd since its inauguration in 1976 thanks to two events that can only be described as Barbenheimer-esque: a Metallica concert and the Pride Parade afterparty.
The countdown is on for the Montreal Pride Festival, happening August 3 to 13. The 17th edition of the largest LGBTQ2S+ celebration in the Francophone world includes performances from over 150 artists in The Village, Olympic Park and other venues.
After last year's catastrophic last-minute cancellation, organizers say they are poised to launch the 17th edition of the Montreal Pride festival without a hitch this summer.
The Montreal Pride Festival will return for its 17th edition from August 3 to 15th, with over 150 artists performing at 15 free shows as well as the traditional parade that was cancelled at the last minute in 2022.
