Mile End en Fête has returned to wash over the streets of Saint-Laurent, Parc, Bernard, St-Viateur, Fairmount, and Laurier West, bringing with it throngs of pedestrians and the official start to summer. Centred around the headquarters of the Lave Auto Laurier car wash and Place Kate-McGarrigle, the open-air street festival presents an exciting program of musical acts and art performances for a full weekend of celebratory family-friendly fun.
On May 24 and May 25, 2025, loiter under brightly coloured tents at the community-hub car wash courtyard to enjoy a meal, performance, and/or workshop before meandering down nearby streets lined with local businesses.
Grab your friends, kids, or dog and come celebrate summer in the heart of Mile End.
