One of the big Summer events in Montreal, is the International Montreal Jazz Festival. It happens every July and it is BIG!! I am not a big fan of jazz, but I do enjoy blues and I love the atmosphere of the Festival. I try to go more or less every lunch hour at least, since I am a couple of streets away from it! ;)
All kinds of bands play there - here, it was a Dixie band.

There's fun stuff for the kids too!

Went with my girlfriend G - took a pic in front of an old mirror - not the best pic ;)

The fountain of ... shovels??!! :)
