Feel the heat in the dead of winter at Igloo Fest: Montréal’s coolest  electronic music event. Every January, thousands of music lovers huddle up (and bundle up) at the Quays of the Old Port for two weeks of ice cold jams. Check out Igloo Fest’s giant igloo village, enter yourself in the annual “Iglooswag” snowsuit contest, and keep yourself warm with endless hot adult drinks. Montréal Igloofest 2022: January 13 to February 5, 2022 Location: Jacques-Cartier Quay Pro tip: When we say bundle up, we’re not kidding. The temps can dip below -25 Celsius (that’s a brisk -13 Fahrenheit). Wear layers under your snowsuit and don’t forget to protect your fingers, toes and eyes from the wind and the cold.
