About
Les Guinguettes are back to set the banks of the Lachine Canal ablaze with the largest waterfront terrace in all of Montreal!
From June 24 to July 5, 2026, the Ancienne-cour-de-triage park will become the festive heart of the Sud-Ouest, with an electric atmosphere that’s fun for the whole family. Two outdoor stages, a capacity of nearly 5,000 people, and more than fifty free concerts and activities will bring the neighbourhood to life for two weeks.
Les Guinguettes is also a true open-air summer experience: some thirty Quebec artisans gathered at the Marché Tropical, a dozen pop-up food stations to tantalize your taste buds—including the highly anticipated Merci Tâta and our iconic Tiki Bar, perfect for sipping a cocktail with your feet in the sand.
