![The Bulletin: Should Montreal’s restaurants charge for no-shows? A townhouse you can't miss... and more! [Issue #2]](https://themain.ghost.io/content/images/2023/01/88c63ce6-e965-498e-8e53-383f12a7c139_640x427.webp)
Another week, another Montreal Bulletin, The Main’s weekly collection of what’s happening, what you might have missed, and what’s to come in Montreal.
This week’s equal parts live music, wine-drenched festivities, art fairs, and slighted local businesses—in other words, an average weekend in the city.
This weekend in Montreal
- Nov 6 to 27: Groups of designers both beginners and experienced have been meeting once a month to sketch their city. Now the results are on display Écomusée du fier monde.
- Nov 25: Transgender comedian Tranna Wintour is performing a 100% improvised hour of standup and storytelling both in English and in French at The Diving Bell Social Club.
- Nov 19 to Dec 31: Downtown Montreal’s biggest Christmas market, Grand Marché de Noël de Montréal, is officially holly, jolly, and open to explore on weekends.
- Nov 22 to Dec 26: The city’s annual boozy, Christmas-inspired bar pop-up Miracle Montreal is back with its naughty and nice shots, cocktails, and holiday kitsch.
- Nov 23 to 27: One of the largest, if not the largest, collection of French-language authors and readers is coming to Montreal with Salon du livre de Montréal.
- Nov 24: The storytelling series of Confabulation is back with a new installment entitled Lies My Parents Told Me. It’s the stories we grew up with--and the people we turned into as a result.
- Nov 26 to Dec 4: For the next two weekends at Locoshop Angus, Marché des Fêtes will be gathering more than 80 artists together for a huge Christmas market.
