The best things to do this weekend in Montreal lean fully into the holiday season: Christmas markets are everywhere, from Puces Pop to Café SAT's festive edition, plus there's The Nutcracker at Place des Arts, a hyperpop party at Turbo Haus, and the launch of a new Indigenous art exhibition at the MBAM.
Use this list that we update every Thursday as a guide when you're looking to plan something romantic, for the family, with your friends, or to do on your own and meet new people in Montreal. There's more than enough things to do to go around.
