9 Things To Do In Montreal This Weekend

We work hard all week to enjoy the weekends, which is why they should not be spent locked in our apartments binge-watching Netflix — at least not during the summer. We suffer through the cold all winter long to enjoy the heat when it arrives and I know I'm not the only local who waits for the weekend so that I can enjoy a day or two of exploring this amazing city. And, as always, there are tons of cool things to do in Montreal this weekend.
