  • NEW YEAR'S EVE IN MONTREAL

    Posted by

    From the simply intimate to the ludicrously grandiose, from the under-your-nose to the off-the-beaten-path, Montreal once again plays host to a huge array of partays this New Year’s Eve, any one of which just may be just the ticket to ringing in a new year that some sayers of sooth are predicting will be our last. Might as well do it up right this NYE… … More

  • FALL 2011 CONCERTS IN MONTREAL

    Posted by

    When it comes to concert craziness, it seems that each subsequent year outdoes its predecessor, and 2011 was no exception. Record attendance was reported at Montreal’s major music festivals and the number of club and larger venue music events hit an all-time high. Clearly, the appetite for music entertainment in Montreal continues to be one that’s not easily satisfied. Hungry music gourmandizers, therefore, will want to take note that Prince, The Wailers, Jay-Z & Kanye, Feist, Judas Priest, Bon Iver, the New York Philharmonic and many more represent the best of what’s left in 2011… … More

  • HALLOWEEN IN MONTREAL: FOR KIDS OF ALL AGES

    Posted by

    Montreal residents generally don’t need an excuse to get out and enjoy their city. But if ever there was one, it’s Halloween, which very comfortably slips the city – and its seasonally-appropriate Old World sensibilities – into an otherworldly embrace each and every October 31, with a colourful array of activities and events, tricks and treats… … More

  • NASCAR IN MONTREAL: A WAR OF ATTRITION

    Posted by

    To the undiscerning Montreal race fan, NASCAR will always and inevitably appear to be the backwoods brethren of the more moneyed Formula One race that deigns to grace Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve as it, in recent times at least, sees fit. Thankfully, there is almost no such thing as an undiscerning Montreal race fan. It’s a big part of the reason that NASCAR’s annual Nationwide series event (officially titled the NAPA Auto Parts 200, for its two-hundred 4.36 km laps) in Montreal, August 19-20, sells out here year after year, making it one of the most successful destinations on the expansive NASCAR circuit… … More

  • OSHEAGA 2011: A PHOTO ESSAY BY SUSAN MOSS

    Posted by

    The 2011 Osheaga Music and Arts Festival drew record numbers of people to Parc Jean Drapeau to see everyone from Eminem to The Flamings Lips. But while the musicians that play a festival grab most of the headlines, it’s the fans that make it amazing. We got the wonderful Montreal photographer Susan Moss to capture it all… … More

  • WEIRD AL YANKOVIC AT JUST FOR LAUGHS

    Posted by

    “I knew nobody would want to see me in a meat dress,” said Weird Al Yankovic from his home in Los Angeles, where he lives with his wife and daughter. The frock of meat is one of the many costumes (from bees to cheese) his weirdness dons in the kooky music video for Perform This Way, his popular parody of Lady Gaga’s Born This Way. “So it’s a female body with my face surgically imposed,” explains Yankovic, who also directed the video that generated two million Youtube hits in two days. … More

      			The Montréal Buzz posted a photo:	This photo I took represents the essence of Montreal. Taking the most beautiful place in Montreal, the Old Port, and using it as a backdrop to Montreal's other beautiful feature: the people!			The Montréal Buzz posted a photo:				The Montréal Buzz posted a photo:	The beauty of Montreal is found in the diversity of the people, the historic landmarks, the arts and culture that bring together residents and returning tourists, and surely, the ever-glowing lights.			The Montréal Buzz posted a photo:	I took this photo approximately 45 minutes before our Toronto bound VIA train was to set to leave.  That morning we packed our bags and sought out crepes for breakfast before heading to the station.  I cried while packing because I didn't want to leave - the four days we had spent in the city had been perfect. We decided to take one last stroll while waiting for our train.  We walked out to the street only to discover it was closed off for the Pride Parade!  I took a few minutes to snap some shots of everyone waiting for the parade to begin.			The Montréal Buzz posted a photo:	This is the view from our hotel room when my cousins and I spent the weekend in Montreal last July. The window looks directly up Avenue McGill College, to McGill campus and the mountain. I lived in Montreal during my time at the university, but this weekend was the first time my three cousins had been to the beautiful city. We spent the entire weekend walking up and down St. Denis, eating La Banquise's poutine in Parc La Fontaine, and napping in Parc Jeanne-Mance. But that first view of the city after our arrival at the hotel was definitely a moment that left my newbie cousins in awe of Montreal.			The Montréal Buzz posted a photo:	Parlovr at Notman House
