A magical 'Christmas fountain' is coming to this Montreal mall (PHOTOS)

Christmas is usually associated with snow and ice so how about a little element change? For the 3rd consecutive year, the Christmas fountain known as “Fontaine boréale” is returning during the holiday season.

The immersive and multi-sensory experience features the Complexe Desjardin’s Grande-Place water fountain, completely decked out in the Christmas spirit.

Every hour, the fountain lights and shoots up to the shopping mall’s ceiling, accompanied by music, lights and special effects.

Or, it could actually be magic.

Perfect for all ages, the Fontaine boréale is an ideal spot to soak up the Christmas spirit. Plus, it’s free to check out.

Speaking of, here’s some highlight from past editions of the Fonataine boréale and its surrounding winter wonderland:
