Montreal: The place to be in 2017!
Montr??al???s 375th anniversary presents an excellent opportunity to create a unique atmosphere for the 2017 ASAC Conference. Word is spreading fast, both at home and abroad: Montr??al will be an exceptionally popular, vibrant, and welcoming destination in 2017.
Montr??al is a fascinating city, a bold and complex mix of contrasts built on a legacy of heritage and culture with a European flair. Montr??al is attractive for so many reasons. It is an island in the heart of an enchanting and majestic river, the Saint Lawrence, home to 1.8 million people. It is a bilingual city where English and French live side by side and intermingle quite naturally. It is also home to some 35 languages and at least as many well-established cultural communities, including the Italian, Chinese, Greek and Spanish-speaking communities.
Montr??al is a cultural metropolis with over 20 classic museums, many theatres and countless performance halls to suit every taste, from fine arts to history to humor and sport enthusiasts. Montr??al is a city of festivals that overflows with warmth year-round, thanks to a whirlwind of cultural and sporting activities that fill its busy calendar (http://www.tourisme-montreal.org/).
There are many bistros, pubs, restaurants, night clubs and trendy dance clubs. Restaurants serve cuisine from around the world, enough to satisfy every palate, appetite and budget, not to mention the home-grown specialties. Thanks to its efficient public transit system, taxis, and a bike sharing system, getting around the city is easy and convenient.
