A Luminous Walk Through Downtown Montreal’s Winter Illuminations

From November 22, 2025 to March 15, 2026, let yourself be carried by the magic of winter illuminations in the heart of downtown Montréal.

Strolling through downtown takes on a whole new feel. Lights reshape the streets, set a soft, intimate mood, and invite you to slow down. Whether it’s a walk for two, a night out with friends, or a quiet solo moment, the setting leaves room for both conversation and shared silence. A perfect pause after work or during a winter evening.

Dive into the magic: a glittering journey awaits

This year, the illuminations unfold along a self-guided route connecting a series of light installations across some of downtown’s most iconic areas.

Easy to explore at your own pace, each stop becomes an invitation – to pause, admire, snap a photo, or simply soak in the glowing, romantic atmosphere that wraps the city, day and night.
