IMAGEMOTION Brasserie Dieu du Ciel!

This November, The Main is taking over IMAGEMOTION in Griffintown for three days of curated vendors, live music, and holiday shopping without the usual arts-and-crafts-in-a-gym/church basement chaos. We're gathering local makers worth knowing and exploring, plus food and drink worth sticking around for, all in one slick space.

It's happening November 21 to 23, 2025, presented by Lightspeed: Details here.

Here's why you should RSVP

Look, we're not gatekeeping—entry is free all weekend. But RSVPing helps us plan the room, stock the bar, and make sure we're not caught off guard when half of the neighbourhood shows up at noon on Saturday.

Plus, you'll get reminders leading up to the event, vendor announcements as we lock them in, and first dibs on any programming details or workshops we add. Think of it as getting on the list without actually needing to be on a list.
