Enjoy a luxury stay at our hotel in Old Montreal this May

 

May is a wonderful time to visit Montreal, with plenty of exciting events and activities to enjoy. Stay at Le Saint-Sulpice Hotel, in the heart of the city’s historic Old Montreal district, to ensure you are in the heart of the action. Here are five events worth checking out during your stay in our luxurious hotel in Old Montreal. 

1. Cirque du Soleil’s ECHO
2. Terrasses throughout the city
3. Piknic Électronique
4. Le Festival TransAmériques
5. Montreal ghost tours

Cirque du Soleil is a go-to when in Montreal

 

Cirque du Soleil’s new show ECHO is a must-see for anyone that enjoys circus, live music and thrilling performance. Premiering April 20th, the show is a tale about evolution as well as the symbiotic relationships that our lives depend on.
It combines poetry, stagecraft, daring acrobatics, and technology to explore the delicate balance between people, animals, and the world we all share. This activity can be enjoyed amongst family, friends or with a partner.

The Big Top tent is a short 9 minute walk from Le Saint-Sulpice Hotel which makes this the perfect evening activity.

Enjoy the outside as bars and restaurants open their terrasses

In May, tourists can start to enjoy Montreal’s best terrases in the Old Port and throughout the city. Not to miss Oskar restaurant terrace, our beautiful garden terrace in the heart of the hotel. Enjoy a drink or a nice dinner in this calm and quiet innen garden!

We highly recommended exploring Place Jacques-Cartier, a public square spanning two blocks that is lined with cafés and restaurants in the Old Port. It is also full of bustling street vendors, entertainers, painters and artists. This cobbled square is the perfect venue to observe all the old world charm that Old Montreal has to offer and enjoy a bite outside.
At night, the square becomes packed with both tourists and locals alike. Conveniently located just a few steps from our hotel in Old Montreal. 

 

Listen to the beats drop at Piknic Électronik

If you’re a fan of electronic music, then you won’t want to miss Piknic Electronik. From May 21st to October 1st 2023, this is an electronic music festival that takes place every weekend on Sunday. This popular event features world-renowned DJs and electronic music artists, as well as a variety of games, food trucks and other vendors. The festival takes place in the beautiful Park Jean-Drapeau. 

Appreciate the best of the performings art the world has to offer

Another exciting event happening in May is the FTA (Festival TransAmériques), a multidisciplinary festival of contemporary performing arts. This year’s festival will feature a variety of performances, including theatre, dance, and music, as well as a number of other events such as workshops and discussions. The festival takes place at various locations throughout the city, making it easy to enjoy and a great way to explore Montreal.

If you like to get spooked, this is the tour for you
