![The Bulletin: Disco Chinois, Dolly Parton Pinball, and Gambling Laboratories [Issue #170]](https://storage.ghost.io/c/00/e5/00e5bf23-2b72-4a48-92bb-496245b79d2a/content/images/2026/02/CCM-montrealchinois-web-2__1_.jpg)
Morning, Montreal.
This weekend belongs to Montréal en Lumière and Nuit Blanche on paper, but as all Bulletins go, there's so much more. Of course, you absolutely should venture out into the cold for all night art crawls and Ferris wheel rides in the snowfall, but there's also hard techno in all black, vinyl marathons, a Lunar New Year disco, and snowboarders at Olympic Park. It is a lot.
Meanwhile, we are tracking everything from PQ referendum talk and abandoned theatres getting second lives to east end transit frustration, and whether algorithms are quietly reshaping how you pick a restaurant. That is also a lot.
Anyway, before you dive in, some internal news: We just launched something new on The Main. It's called Featured Places.
