Organizing an evening with over 100 activities may seem daunting, but Nuit Blanche has simplified it by introducing 7 themed routes. These routes, such as "Une nuit qui s’expose", "Une nuit au cinéma", "Musique de nuit", and more, including "Danse ta nuit", are now accessible on the website and the Montréal en lumière app.
You will also be able to enjoy all these activities without worrying about the metro closing since The Société de transport de Montréal (STM) will be extending all of its services until morning. This means that you can explore everything that Nuit Blanche has to offer without the stress of catching the last metro!
