As summer winds down, Montreal is buzzing with last-chance adventures before the next, colder season sets in. But this hasn't stopped organizers from putting on high-octane demonstrations of skateboarding and bouldering, public dance performances, and open markets—and don't even get us started on how massive the restaurant and bar event offerings are this week (plus some sad news to share out of Old Montreal).
Assuming you'll be hitting the public markets to get the last of September's best crops as you plan for which soups you'll be batch cooking, consider grabbing our new limited-edition tote bag. It's perfect for all those end-of-summer finds.

Activities, parties, points of interest, art exhibitions, you name it: These are the weekend events you don't want to miss.
