The 21st edition of the West Island Blues Fest is preparing to launch with spectacular performances lined up and a fourth location added to the mix this year.
The festival has distributed about $300,000 to community groups, including the West Island Black Community Association and the West Island Women’s Shelter.
From fireworks to the cirque, jazz fests to the Kahnawake pow wow, food from India to rum from the Caribbean, the Montreal area is packed with things to do this weekend.
