The festival
Festival BLVD turns Saint-Laurent Boulevard, between Sherbrooke Street and Mont-Royal Avenue, into a vast festive pedestrian playground in the heart of Montreal. The free, family-friendly event closes the artery to traffic and fills it with interactive installations, giant games, themed activities and playful experiences for all ages.
It is one of late summer's signature gatherings on the Main, the iconic artery of the Plateau-Mont-Royal and Mile End. The 2026 edition ran September 3 to 6; the organizer has not yet published the next edition's dates.
