Woohoo! It’s spring break. Out of office on, time to start planning activities now, if you haven’t already. While the kids will be off for the next week or two (depending on your school) the entire month of March is filled with great events. Read on to discover all of the Montreal family activities that March 2024 has to offer!
Spring Break Activities
Pointe-à-Calliere – March 2-9
This Old Montreal museum will be offering activities daily from 11am to 4pm that are inspired by the current exhibits about the Saint Lawrence River and pirates!

Place des Arts – March 6-9
Head downtown to discover a myriad of activities mid-break. Just a few of the free events include storytelling (in French), a circus workshop, baking for the homeless in partnership with La Tablée des Chefs, and an origami workshop. While you’re in the area, it’s a great time to check out Montreal en Lumiere as well!

The bookstore does it best with 5 themed days of free activities at various Indigo and Coles locations in the city (and throughout Canada if you’re travelling nationally). Here’s the itinerary: Monday – Lego, Tuesday – Dogman, Wednesday – Baking with Klutz, Thursday – Bluey and Friday – Hot Wheels and Barbie.
