Montreal in May is when the city wakes up from its winter hibernation to warmer weather, and there's an undeniable buzz in the air. In addition to the start of orange cone season, all of the park activities at Tams Tams or Picnik Électronik kick off alongside cultural events and outdoor festivals.
Montreal is pulling out all the stops to help you celebrate Mother's Day in style. You can start the day with an outdoor activity, if you're looking to add a little pep to your mom's step on the special morning. Or, opt for a more elegant gathering where tea and delicacies are the main event, if leisure is more her pace.
If the simple pleasures of Stardew Valley have you longing to step foot in your favourite video game, let Montreal be your urban farmstead. With quirky townsfolk to romance and local markets that give Joja Mart a run for its money, the city is a dupe for Pelican Town (minus the weeding but with a whole lot of green space).
As summer approaches, the Palais des congrès is prepping its halls for a convergence of cosmic proportions. Montreal Comiccon is ready to transport attendees to the final frontier with a lineup that includes some of Starfleet's finest. Fans will have the chance to meet Star Trek legends in person.
