Igloofest - Justin Linds

For 3 weekends in January - the cold has reached its summit, the night is at its longest, the snow and ice are pervasive and locals are beginning to experience the symptoms of winter depression - Montrealers gather in an act of defiance. Exposing ourselves to the elements, international electronic acts compel us out of hibernation for an unforgettable outdoor rave. Igloofest is a spectacle that truly demonstrates how fun Montrealers can be when there is heavy bass, alcohol, and skin-biting temperatures. Note: You want to be overdressed for this party; that means parkas, goose-down, and winter boots!
