Press Release

Hydro-Québec presents the 10th edition of the Nuit blanche à Montréal: a very colorful night!

Hydro-Québec is happy to invite festival-goers to the Nuit blanche à Montréal, a major event of MONTREAL EN LUMIÈRE, which will take place during the night of Saturday, March 2nd  and Sunday, March 3rd .

170 activities, most of them free, are planned for this magical night: museum visits, poetry, film, music, song, skating, artists’ workshops, art galleries, even winter swimming—to name but a few!

As part of this event, Hydro-Québec invites night owls of all ages to visit its head office lobby, where they can view the striking luminous mural by Jean-Paul Mousseau. Free guided tours will be given between 6 p.m. on Saturday and 5 a.m. Sunday morning.

Since a few years, the Nuit blanche à Montréal raised itself on the same rank as similar events held in Paris, Riga, Madrid and Brussels!

Hydro-Québec invites the public to experience this unique event and celebrate the urban magic of winter—shining bright throughout the Festival!
