Touring the world for free...that is something you can do during the summer at Parc Jean-Drapeau. The Week-ends du monde event provides Montrealers of all origins with a showcase in which they can share and celebrate their culture and tradition through music, dance and culinary discoveries. The event, presented by Loto-Québec, began in 2005 and has since enjoyed increasing popularity with the Montréal population eager to learn about the cultural wealth of the diverse communities that have come here and established local roots.
