“Montreal is home to collectives and party series representing a wide array of communities, cultures, and identities. They are showing the world that there are still new sounds to be heard, and that people will always find a way to come together around music and dance—that if there are no third spaces, we'll make them,” says Oliver Philbin-Briscoe, co-founder of FANTOM (Fédération pour les Arts Nocturnes comprenant les Travailleur·euses et Organisateur·ices de Montréal).
Montreal is home to an abundance of year-round festivals including the International Jazz Festival, Osheaga, Piknik Electronik, and MUTEK.
But while these have become a defining part of our cultural scene, they are the product of the homegrown and independent talent, spaces, and opportunities that gives our city that element which distinguishes us from other major cities and has enabled artists and the scene to thrive.
