Seasons and climate

Dive into Montréal's vibrant atmosphere any time of the year, no matter what the weather. 

Summer

You’ll need cool shades for summer’s sultry hot days, dancy Piknics and oodles of outdoor art and music. Catch awesome festivals like the Jazz, F1 and Osheaga, hit the beach or relax with drinks on a rooftop patio.

Fall

Fall overflows with cutting-edge film, music and dance, the mouth-watering harvest bounty and beautiful foliage. Cozy up on crisp outdoor walks, dive into the city’s culinary scene and get a glow up at the Botanical Garden.

Winter

Bundle up for ice skating, outdoor dance parties and MONTRÉAL EN LUMIÈRE, the world’s biggest winter festival. Montréal dazzles with holiday markets and treats, twinkling lights and pristine snow.

Spring

Spring in Montréal is all about light showers, blooming flowers and gentle, sunny rays. Tap sugar shacks for maple treats, watch mural paintings and BIXIs brighten the streets as literature and music fests usher in warmer days.
