8 things to do on a Saturday night in Montreal if you’re not into clubbing
While it’s true that the nightlife in Montreal is incredible, sometimes staying out late and going to a club isn’t your thing. Lucky for you, you do not need to partake in Montreal’s nightlife scene to have a good time in our bustling city. From extreme trampolining to laser tag, Montreal has a multitude of activities happening on any given night.
Here are 9 activities to do on a Saturday night in Montreal if you’re not into clubbing:
iSaute
Take up extreme trampolining for an evening at this 30,000 square foot warehouse in Anjou. With massive rooms filled with wall-to-wall trampolines, you can feel like a kid again jumping as high as your body can soar. If you get tired of plain old jumping, iSaute also boasts a trampoline dodgeball stadium and a basketball dunk centre.

With Montreal’s two most famous bagel joints, Fairmount and St- Viateur open 24 hours you can eat as many bagels as your heart desires as late as you like.
