Montrealers in search of a winter escape need not look far this season. Winterlude is set to transform Canada's capital into an icy playground filled with enchanting experiences from February 2 to 19, 2024. The festival has over 200 activities, including an adrenaline-pumping "Super Slide," an awe-inspiring ice sculpture showcase, and an electrifying breakdance battle on ice.

On April 29 and 30, Bagel Burlesque Expo is bringing the innovative performance style to the city with shows that blend the glamour of striptease with playful, humourous theatricality, and a sex-positive, gender-bending message. The line-up will feature over 25 Montreal and international artists performing an array of dance styles and bodies of different sizes and abilities.
