A huge 'torchlight' Christmas parade is happening in Montreal this weekend

On December 9, Avenue du Mont-Royal will light up for the 2017 Torchlight Christmas Parade.
This holiday extravaganza will feature the characters of Yan Imbault animations who will take to the streets alongside choirs, stilt walkers, entertainment, and festive parade-goers.
The evening will end with musical fireworks at La Fontaine Park and a free concert by Damien Robitaille.
Wear your bright colours and don’t forget to bring your glowsticks and flashlights to light up the streets for this magical nighttime parade!
