It’s time to dust off those dirndls and lederhosen because Oktoberfest is returning to Montreal’s Atwater Market.
On October 1, from 11 am to 7 pm, the Bavarian-style festival will take over a tent at the downtown market. And to the delight of beer enthusiasts, 15 microbreweries from different regions in Quebec will be on-site showcasing their local flavours.
