Description
The Montreal Comic Arts Festival takes place on Saint-Denis Street, between Gilford and Roy, transforming the street into a 1.2 km promenade dedicated to comic arts. The event features free activities, exhibitions, and meet-and-greets that are accessible to all. Several accessible picnic tables and adapted toilets are available at various locations throughout the site. The sinks at the handwashing stations are foot-operated, which may limit autonomous use for some individuals.
Please note that the site was evaluated for the 2025 edition, so subsequent editions may differ.
