The festival

BalconFest Hochelaga is a free music festival that turns the balconies, galleries and yards of Hochelaga-Maisonneuve into small one-day stages, offered by neighbourhood residents. Inspired by the Porchfest movement born in Ithaca in 2007, it sends audiences strolling from balcony to balcony to hear local artists — folk, jazz, rock, hip-hop and electro. Its first edition was held on Sunday, July 19, 2026, from 11:30 a.m.

to 9 p.m. The official website invites people back next year, with no dates yet announced for the next edition.
