As you stroll along the Plaza, young and old alike will be captivated by Coudre un chemin, an artistic project inspired by the street’s many prom and wedding dress boutiques. Artist Patsy Van Roost, the “Urban Fairy,” will be creating a wedding train live until August 18, using stories shared by passersby.

Children won’t be left out: Les Mamizelles, an outdoor musical theatre show for ages 3 to 8, will take place on the Bellechasse Stage on August 3.

And on July 28, don’t miss the LNI micromatch, as the famous improv league steps out of its rink to perform on Plaza St‑Hubert!

On top of all this, enjoy cultural and artistic activities, musical performances, sports and leisure events, urban agriculture, and even meet local organizations at the community kiosk.

As a reminder, the average number of people walking through Montréal’s pedestrian streets rose from 40,000 on weekdays in 2020–2021 to around 91,000 two years later.

“Since their creation, pedestrian streets have energized Montréal’s neighbourhoods and become must‑visit destinations for both residents and visitors,” said Valérie Plante, Mayor of Montréal, during the announcement of the districts benefiting from pedestrianization for summer 2024.

For its major pedestrianization, Plaza St‑Hubert has been equipped with accessible installations that allow everyone to take a break while strolling or shopping.

The pedestrian street is easy to reach by several modes of transportation: by metro (Jean‑Talon, Beaubien and Rosemont stations), by bus (lines 18, 95 and 30), and by bike.

Parking spaces on nearby parallel streets and in municipal lots (on St‑André) are also available for people with reduced mobility. On site, they can also enjoy the Vélo Duo transport service, offered until August 25 from Thursday to Sunday on Saint‑Hubert Street.

Come enjoy the activities, shops and restaurants with family or friends on the pedestrian street — Plaza St‑Hubert is waiting for you!

Key dates to remember:   June 25: closure to car traffic and installation of pedestrian setups July 4: start of pedestrianization August 25: end of pedestrianization and beginning of dismantling August 30: planned reopening to car traffic
