Montrealers, street festivals are finally back! This weekend, avenue du Mont-Royal will transform into a giant street sale fair for the first time since the start of the pandemic.

All kinds of merchants will come out from their stores and set up for the city's longest open-air street sale.

The Société de développement de l'avenue du Mont-Royal says merchants will be offering bargain prices.

There will be a bunch of surprise performances and events, as well. These events won't be announced in advance to avoid crowd buildup but keep an eye open.

The street will be closed to vehicle traffic from boulevard Saint-Laurent to rue Fullum.

It begins on Thursday, August 26 at 11 a.m. and will continue until 6 p.m. on Sunday, August 29.
