Gay tourism in Montreal, Canada
Leisure
Montreal is the gay capital of Canada. The city offers a huge variety of gay-oriented entertainment and leisure possibilities, with something to suit all tastes and budgets.
Our school has compiled a list of Great Things to See and Do in Montreal, as well as a guide to some of the city’s best Gay Venues. For an up to date list of the latest gay events and activities taking place in this beautiful city, you can check out our Events Calendar. The friendly staff at our school in Montreal will also be happy to advise you on how to make the most of your stay.
In addition, the school organises a fantastic leisure program for all its students. Activities include a variety of excursions and outings, sports and parties, ideal for getting to know the other students in a relaxed atmosphere, outside of classes. Many activities are included in the price, and some are offered at reduced costs.
Gay Montreal
Montréal has a gay and lesbian community that makes up a significant segment of its population. This has resulted in the forging of a special spirit of openness and tolerance between the general public and Montréal's LGBT community. Such open mindedness has made the city, particularly the Village, a preferred destination for members of the LGBT community from around the world. Here, more than anywhere else, gay men and women of all ages, from all backgrounds, can walk together in safe, comfortable and hip surroundings.
The gay village is a 20 minute walk from our language school or 10 minutes by Metro. Visitors will find a large selection of gay owned and gay friendly restaurants, cafés, hotels, art galleries, theatres, bars, retailers and other businesses in this part of Montréal.

Montreal is also host to many major gay oriented events that attract huge crowds of visitors.
