Downtown, in parks, on boats, and in stadiums, Montreal’s August lineup is equal parts energy and escape. Just when summer seems to slow down, Montreal raises you world-class tennis serves, golden hour DJ sets, and superstars on the OSHEAGA stage for moments that feel both laid-back and electric.
From dubstep drops at îLESONIQ to country croons at LASSO, open-air yoga sessions to community beer gardens, the city offers wild nights, slow mornings, and everything in between this August. All that’s left to do is to pour a drink, grab some shades, and make the most of the last full month of summer.
