23 Best Things to Do in Montreal

"Since the mid 1960s, the informal, yet institutionalized, phenomenon known as Tam Tams has been one of the city's quirkiest and most beloved traditions, coming to Mont Royal Park every Sunday during the warmer months. At the base of the George-Étienne Cartier Monument obelisk, groups of friends, strangers, and percussionists from all walks of life gather to form communal drum circles, artisans and craftspeople sell their wares and LARPers (that's, Live Action Role Players) have lightsaber fights and medieval jousting matches. The beauty of Tam Tams is that it's free. Even if you simply pair it with a quick walk through the park on your way from brunch in Outremont to some other activity Downtown, it's fun to take in the sights, even if it's just an hour or so." - Todd Plummer
