Saint-Laurent Boulevard puts on a weekend-long spread with its mammoth Main Madness street sale.
That’s right, from June 19 to 22, Montréal’s beloved “Main” turns into a massive open-air market as merchants set up shop outdoors for the masses who flock there for the great deals. But, this being Montréal, it’s not only about snagging that designer dress at discount, because that would be, in itself, way too ordinaire. Historically-speaking, Saint-Laurent Boulevard has always been one of the city’s most popular hangouts, and now the street renovations have wrapped up, it’s reclaimed its rightful place for its great vibe and ultra-cool mix of people.
So from Thursday to Sunday, from Sherbrooke Street right up to Mont-Royal Avenue, join the hundreds of Montrealers and visitors who will be ambling about, admiring and assessing the assortment of wares on display, while pausing to slake their thirst or satisfy their hunger at the food kiosks dotting the strip. And rest assured, whatever you’re looking for, you’ll be sure to find it here. There’s a motley assortment of businesses, selling anything from trendy designer duds to vintage frip finds and from hardcore hardware to chic home decorating. Even if you don’t have a fixed item in mind, just come here to enjoy a slice of Montréal life as it unfolds on the Main.
