June 2005 : Quite The Month to be in Montr�al
Montr�al, June 9, 2005
This is only June 9 and the month has already shown quite a promise for the upcoming Montreal summer.
Place des Arts was full Monday evening, both indoors and outdoors, when the additional performance of Carmen was performed before a full-house and broadcast on a giant screen for the 10,000 people who couldn't get tickets. This Saturday, MSO musicians who are currently on strike are offering a second concert at Eglise Saint-Jean-Baptiste.
Now this is F1 Grand-Prix weekend - just a few days after the F�ria du V�lo yearly cycling festival.
Foodwise the choice is yours when it comes to outstanding restaurants but something quite unusual awaits you if you decide to attend the Insectarium's 6-Legged Picnic.
Talking legs, there are always fashion shows during the Grand-Prix. These are listed in the Montreal festival list - see below for links. Festival de th��tre des Am�riques just ended, MUTEK as well, but the end of the month Jazz Festival's full program is available.
Museum exhibitions are also a tough choice this year. Between the 60's, the Vatican, Appearances, Holgate, Einstein and the Roman Gauls... just to name a few.
