The 16th annual Lebanese Festival is returning to Montreal.

From its humble starts, the neighbourhood party has gradually become a large-scale social and cultural event where thousands of families and visitors gather to celebrate.

Last year’s festival, which was held from June 14 to 17, managed to gather more than 40,000 visitors of different nationalities and origins over the four-day festival. This year’s celebration will be no different.
