M for Montreal 2021 kicks off this week with Fleece, Crabe, Loud, Beach Body, Naya Ali, and more

Just in time for the relaxation of Quebec’s venue restrictions on November 15 (dancing is legal once again!) M for Montreal is back.

The long-running networking event and live music festival returns with a hybrid model this year, with a slew of shows open to the public and a robust program of panels and industry showcases for pro pass holders.

The in-person programming runs from November 17-19 in venues across the city, featuring the likes of locals Fleece (Bar le Ritz, Nov, 19), Crabe (Sala Rossa, Nov. 19), a Joy Ride Records bash at Club Soda on Nov. 19 featuring Loud, Rymz, and many more, and Bodywash (Sala Rossa, Nov, 20), just to name a few.

Check out the full list of shows open to the public below. For tickets, passes, and the complete schedule, visit the official M for Montreal site.
