At the very tip of the island of Montreal, where the St. Lawrence meets Lac des Deux Montagnes, Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue has plenty to offer.

Whether you’re with family, friends, or solo, there are plenty of reasons to plan a weekend getaway in the area!
Visit Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue
Music on the boardwalk all summer long
This summer, the heart of Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue transforms into an open-air stage. From June 19 to September 13, 2026, local musicians will perform at Place de l’Harmonie as part of the city’s street performer program. One Saturday it’s jazz, the next it’s francophone music, and sometimes a solo performer sets the mood for a relaxed dinner on the patio.
It’s the kind of evening that’s easy to enjoy—no planning or tickets required. Just bring a folding chair, grab a drink, and settle in. With free admission, local talent just steps away, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, everything is in place for a great time!
Saint-Jean celebrations in good company
On June 23, 2026, Saint-Jean celebrations take over Place de l’Harmonie. Free and open to all, Quebec’s National Holiday brings neighbours, families, and friends together for an evening of music, entertainment, and community spirit.
For families looking for a more intimate Saint-Jean celebration, this event is all about reconnecting with familiar faces, enjoying the sunset by the water, and singing along to beloved Quebec classics.
A nature festival to end summer on a high note
When September arrives, Sainte-Anne Street comes alive for Naturally Sainte-Anne. Taking place this year on Saturday, September 12, 2026, this event celebrates plants and wildlife in the area, while highlighting the importance of protecting local flora and fauna.
With workshops, kiosks, and entertainment, there’s something for curious visitors of all ages. An excellent way to savour the last days of summer while gaining a deeper appreciation for protecting the natural world around us.
Enjoy one last stroll along the canal to end the summer the way it began: calmly, unhurried, and next to the water.
