It takes a long time to plan this party!

Pop Montreal continues to search for the greatest and most innovative independent musical talents in Montreal and abroad, with the ultimate aim of bringing them together in a festival that celebrates the intangible and transcendent value of music and art. We do this in an atmosphere that challenges industry norms and promotes social awareness and cultural relevance. We are not concert promoters. We are collaborators, co-organizers, and lovers of music in the purest sense. We want nothing more than to help people bring their art to the world. And finally, we will continue to throw the greatest party in the world!

This year’s festival will take place October 1 – 5, 2008 in 35 venues throughout Montreal.

Early bird deadline Dec 26th, 2007
Final deadline June 2nd, 2008
