![The Bulletin: Genre Cinema's Big Three-O, 12 Days for 250 Comedy Shows, Hochelaga Wrestling, and Drinking Wine Until Dawn [Issue #190]](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.sanity.io%2Fimages%2F2edxk5v7%2Fproduction%2Fc7146973da7f810490e13b6dd16ed10e0b8882ee-864x737.jpg&w=2560&q=90)
Morning, Montreal.
There’s lots to talk about this week, and no time to lose!
Firstly, when we take stock of it, a big hello is due to all of the musicians, comedians, athletes, and general out-of-towners throughout the coming weeks. JFL, Nuits d’Afrique, OSHEAGA, international competitions, World Cup fanbases, and beyond are bringing the world together within the confines of our island’s shores. Construction holidays will no doubt cause an exodus to the townships and cottage country, but make no mistake: The streets will feel far from empty.
Second, we hope you caught the release of our second-ever special collab summer micromag with our pals over at URBANIA, presented by PHI. In it, you’ll find a quiz testing how much of a Montrealer you are, a deep dive into the lives of locals who grew up in the shadow of Bill 101, a tell-all from nightlife photographer Lazer Cobra on where the scene is flourishing right now, and an explainer on why the vintage scene is booming right now. All of these stories and more are in our ‘What You Need to Know’ section as well, so be sure to check those out.
