Love Festival Montreal
About This Event
Love Festival is a circuit party series that runs during Fierté Montréal, the city's Pride, in August. It is a commercial party festival, separate from the Pride programme itself.
The 2026 listings show four nights: Pulse at Cabaret Berlin, Locker Room and the big Saturday District party at MTelus on Sainte-Catherine Street East, and a closing party called Pure Love. We couldn't find an official website or the name of the producer, only a Facebook page (LoveFestivalMtl), and the listings disagree on some nights.
The 2027 dates hadn't been announced when we checked.

Practical Tips
Buy the full pass, not single tickets
Locker Room, District Inferno, Pure Love and Meat Lover back-to-back is a lot of door prices; the bundle pays for itself by Saturday afternoon and skips the queues.
Base yourself in the Village
M Telus is a short walk or one Green line stop from Beaudry, so a Village hotel means you can duck home for a nap between the daytime and after-hours sets.
