An outdoor food festival is coming to the Quartier des Spectacles this month

The Just for Laughs festival has done a good job keeping Montreal laughing throughout the years and the outdoor food festival, Bouffons MTL will do a good job keeping the city fed too.
Bouffons’ 4th edition will run concurrently with Just for Laughs and will be situated just outside the JFL grounds on Saint Catherine Street in between Rue Jeanne-Mance and Rue De Bleury.
Described as a âgourmet open-air village on the esplanade,â the event will host over 50 food trucks and vendors offering a variety of local eats, including vegetarian and vegan options, to Montrealers and tourists.
This yearâs participants include Mandyâs, Bozzipop, Hoogan et Beaufort, Copper Branch, Imadake, La Porchetta, Lacrem, LâExpress St-Zotique, Fluffy Puffs, Brit & Chips, BeaverTails, Les GivrĂ©s, Poutine Factory, The Smoking BBQ, Loâs Lemonade, and more!
The food fest is even known to welcome a few surprise guests from Just for Laughs:
Entertainment, good food, alcohol-infused popsicles, and Beaver Tails all in the same spot.
Admission is free but menu items vary according to selection.
