The four-day fever dream of K-pop, Korean street snacks, fan fashion, and spontaneous dance battles known as POCHA MTL is back to unfold on the edge of the Lachine Canal in the Peel Basin.
From July 24 to 27, it transforms its lookout spot into a lit up hub for die-hard fandoms, first-time visitors, and anyone with a soft spot for spicy rice cakes and high-energy choreography.
Now in its fifth year, POCHA MTL blends the best of Seoul’s street markets and pop culture into a uniquely Montreal experience. You’ll find tteokbokki and kogos alongside skincare stalls, lightsticks waving to dance crews on stage, and maybe even a bichon in a hanbok posing for photos. It’s a community-powered celebration of Korean culture that's loud, joyful, and built to bring people together.
