The countdown to Christmas has officially begun.

Once Halloween is behind us, Montreal goes straight into holiday mode.

From checking out the city’s more sparkly Christmas lights to the arrival of the (free) holiday train, there are plenty of ways to get into the festive spirit—including sipping on a cup of hot chocolate, with a matcha white chocolate chip cookie in hand, at Time Out Market Montreal after visiting the many Christmas markets. 

From the Old Port to Jean-Talon Market, Montreal has plenty of markets to explore.

But when do these festive markets open for 2024?
