Montreal Pride
LBG+ festival (Early-Aug)
Montreal Pride is best known for its huge flamboyant LBG+ parade that celebrates alternative sexualities on the streets.
But the event actually runs over 11 days of partying, exhibitions, readings and the like, making it the biggest such event in the Francophone world.
The parade itself usually travels east on René-Lévesque Boulevard, to end in the Gay Village.
