Next month is the start of the summer festival season in Montreal! The June theme at EC Montreal is “Bring on the Festivals”. All the free social activities offered on Wednesdays at the school will mirror the festivals taking place in the city of Montreal!
There are so many festivals taking place in the city that we actually could not include all of them on the calendar! Montreal has some of the biggest festivals in the world!
We will kick off the month with a Grand Prix celebrations around the city! Formula 1 is a huge event in Montreal! People from all over the world travel to Montreal to participate in this event! We will be sure to spot some celebrities enjoying the city! We will take our students to the Festival on Crescent Street where there will be free concerts and sports cars on display!
The following week, the city of Montreal will be celebrating its annual World Beer Festival! We will give our students a taste of local beers. That same week is the start of the Francopholies, French music Festival! Artists from different parts of the French-speaking world will be performing at outdoor venues all over the entertainment district of Montreal!
The month of June is also strawberry season in the province of Quebec. We will host our annual strawberry festival at the school. We will serve strawberries in so many wonderful ways!
We will also have our annual ice cream day and a Canada Day picnic in the student lounge!
The activity calendar will be filled with visits to the Jazz Festival, World Cup Soccer viewings, La Ronde Amusement Park, and trips to Toronto, Quebec City, New York City and Ottawa on Canada Day!
What a festive month we look forward to at EC Montreal! When you join our ESL courses in Montreal with EC, you are booking more than a language course!
