La Grande Tournée
A major 375th event, La Grande Tournée, presented by Cirque Éloize, will be travelling from one end of the city to the other all summer long to celebrate its history and its people, have fun and live it up in our communities. It will give everyone who loves Montréal the chance to discover the city's charms and secrets, celebrate with their families and get to know their neighbours. The fun will also spill out onto an adjacent street or back alley where other events also await. This is a fantastic chance to experience the dynamism and energy of the city's boroughs during Montréal's 375th and Canada's 150th. From May 12 to September 17.
