Montreal is gearing up for an exciting year with tons of food fests, music events and things to do in and around Montreal that are bound to make your 2024 a memorable one. We've compiled the ultimate guide to Montreal festivals in 2024 with events running through March to November, this way you can enjoy the fun without having to do all the work.
Montreal's summer season isn't going anywhere anytime soon and there's certainly no shortage of culture and excitement to soak in. The city still has loads of festivals covering music, food, dance and cultural events lined up for August and September.
Montreal in August is a sea of orange cones, as construction season drags on. But behind the dust and detours lies a pot of cultural gold. You may not find a rainbow at the end of the roadworks, but you will find a full spectrum of Pride events. There's also Orientalys, a melting pot of diverse flavours to tease your palate, and the Scottish Highland Games, with kilts and caber tosses. And let's not forget the epic Italian heritage celebration, taking you through the heart of the Mediterranean without leaving the city. So while your GPS may be working overtime with all the reroutes, your calendar is about to get a serious workout too. Here are some of the most exciting events of the month.
Is it August already? If you're bewildered with how fast the summer is passing by, then don't fret, 'cause we're just as puzzled. But if the end of summer scaries are starting to kick in, not to worry, as Montreal is still coming in hot (as hot as the weather that is) to bring you a jam-packed weekend.
