                <description><![CDATA[A giant outdoor and indoor jazz festival, one of the highlights of the Montreal calendar. Big names and small names, swing jazz and drum n bass, the Montreal Jazz Fest has it all. Several streets are blocked off and the atmosphere is brilliant.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A rendezvous that's been going on for years and still feels totally impromptu: every Sunday, a bunch of musicians (mainly drummers, and the odd saxophonist) gathers around the Etienne Cartier statue in the beautiful Parc du Mont Royal and entertains a happy crowd of young and old hippies. Informal and really uplifting. In the winter you can enjoy a full range of seasonal activities - hockey, lovely walks and cross country ski trails that are easy, have great views and are open all evening.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Because it's the best and the coolest and the classiest local jazz club in Montréal. Good menu with great ambience; jazz is always good, and always full of locals. Generally a cover charge, depending on the band, so you'll be among the non-student scene of the city. Size is fairly small, so while it's great to have a conversation and be able to see the musicians' actual fingers play (and both of these at the same time), you will risk not getting a seat if you show up after 22h30.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Very comfy hangout café, lazy and leisurely and local. Time-worn sofas and seats with live music and vegan fare, located in the hipster region of the French downtown divide, bordering on the Latin quarter. <br><br>Open Celtic music Monday nights; traditional Québec dancin' &amp; fiddlin' Wednesday nights. Other nights list other loc(o)al musicfolk, and local art is showcased on the walls. <br><br>Mission of the place: To promote relations between people who share a common vision on ecology, society, communuty and culture.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Casa del Popolo is the very best venue for new music, and a lovely place to have a beer and some veggie food in the afternoon. (Try the back garden.) <br><br>And Dante Hardware, on Rue Dante near Jean Talon Market, is something you'll only find in North America: a store that is half fine cookware, half hunting rifles! Not to be missed.]]></description>
