  • This review is for the event on Friday, June 14, 2013. This was an absolutely amazing event -- KUDOS to the city of Montreal! You cannot possibly get something this good for free. Yes, admission is free! The venue was huge, and by my estimate it's probably at least 2 city blocks by 2 city blocks. All the roads in the area were closed to traffic so it's safe to walk around. If you drive here, expect massive traffic jam. If you can, take the metro and exit Place Des Arts and you're about a 5-minute walk to the event. Street parking lots cost $10 - 15. You can also park in the garage under the Desjardins Mall. If I counted correctly, there were at least 6 stages, from hard rock to soft rock to pop and even a cappella. The variety of music was amazing, although most of them were in French (this is Montreal!) The planning was good as many of the performances were timed so that they didn't conflict with each other. However, at most times, there would be more than one performance going on. There were plenty of vendors selling everything from food and snacks to beer and wine and specialty drinks. There were also at least a dozen or so restaurants that had patio seating near where all the actions were. However, expect long waits at most of the restaurants. I was amazed by how safe it felt over there. There was minimal security presence and people were behaving. There were plenty of families with small children and they were all having a great time. The atmosphere was vibrant and it was a huge party. Despite the partying going in, we didn't see any rowdiness or overly drunk people. Maybe because this is Canada (you may not agree but Canadians are very nice people). We had one of the best times in our lives in this spectacular outdoor music festival. And you can't beat the price -- free! Next year the event will be on June 13, 2014 so mark your calendar.
