The Bulletin: A beer garden thrift market, too many DJs, and race weekend at an art gallery? [Issue #133]

It’s F1 weekend in Montreal, which means two things: traffic’s a nightmare, and the party invites won’t stop: Velvet ropes and rooftop bottle service for some, and events happening elsewhere across the city for others—think textile art in a century-old sewing shop, an all-vinyl radio fundraiser, and a scent club deep-diving into the world of tea.

You’ve also got queer circus confessions, techno behind a gallery, zine launches, open-air concerts, block parties, and yes, more DJ sets than any one human can reasonably handle. Whether you’re all for espresso martini or Carib beer, there’s something on the calendar that’s going to make you stay out too late.

Also this week: the city clamps down on noise and Airbnbs, garbage is messy, and Montreal makes the case (again) for why we’re more than just a good time.
