Upcomming Montreal Jazz Fest.

Mont Royal should be on everyone's list of things to do. The park is very pleasant and the summit affords great views of the City. There are terrific open air markets also if you enjoy that sort of thing. Premier Moisson is a great bakery (with 22 stores in the surrounding area no less) but there are others that are probably just as good if not better. Basilica De Notre Dame is also a must visit. Rue St. Crescent, especially near the art museum should be checked out as well. Enjoy!

How are you getting here, plane, train or automobile?

There is so much to do and see in Montreal during the summer the question is where to start?

Audiophile things to do and see:
There are a lot of good record shops, the one I highly recommend is "Au 33 Tours". It is located in the heart of one of the trendiest boroughs Plateau Mont-Royal on Mount-Royal street east. Once on the street there are all kinds of shops restaurants to check out. Here is the link to the shop http://www.aux33tours.com

Audio shops, again we have more than our fair share in this city. A great one to check out which is close to the Jazz fest site is Coudre de Foudre Audio. It is located three blocks south of the Jazz Fest site on Bleury street. Here is the link http://www.cdfaudio.com/. From there it is few more block south to China town.

I gotta go now, but I'll post more suggestions later.

Thanks for responses.
i'm getting there by plain. I'll be more likely getting around with public transportation. audiphile thing will probably be the very last thing to do as I only plan to be 4 days mostly attending live concerts.
