Vieux-Port de Montréal et centre-ville au coucher du soleil

Montreal offers more outings than any other city in Quebec: festivals almost every weekend, major performance venues, museums, public markets, parks and neighbourhoods to explore on foot. This guide brings together our best ideas for outings in Montreal, sorted by category, with the listing of each place and upcoming events.

Good to know

The metro serves most of the major venues and saves you the headache of parking downtown. In summer, the Quartier des spectacles hosts many free shows; in winter, the city can also be explored through its underground network and its festivals.
