Montreal to host world's largest gay dance festival

Sep 13 2016, 1:41 am

Black & Blue, otherwise known as the world’s largest gay dance festival, is back in Montreal this October.

The event typically takes place over the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend, and all proceeds from the event go towards HIV/AIDS and the gay community.

This year, from October 5th until October 11th, the Pierre Charbonneau Amphitheatre will once again be taken over by an array of activities for the gay community and its friends.

The week of Black & Blue events includes dance parties, brunches, sporting events, and art exhibitions, but mostly partying.

There will be an awesome party happening every day of the week, ranging from the October 5th Launch Party to the Party Bears and Friends on October 8th.

Of course, the main event of every Black & Blue Festival is the Black & Blue party. Held on October 9th this year, the party will feature some of the best DJs in the world, as well as sound and lighting-the-art technology.
