If you’ve never been, Pop Montreal is a great, relaxed festival that, while it does have some big interntational names, also puts an emphasis on the best new acts in Montreal, Quebec and Canada. There are also special events, talks, films, art, BBQs and more, plus early autumn is a great time to visit the city. Passes and individual show tickets are on sale.
