Montreal is Canada's cultural capital — a bilingual, festival-obsessed city that hosts more events per capita than almost anywhere in North America. From the world-famous Just for Laughs comedy festival to the Montreal International Jazz Festival (the largest in the world), the city dedicates its summers to massive, mostly free outdoor festivals. The Plateau's bohemian spirit and Old Montreal's cobblestone charm provide year-round event backdrops.
