Venue of the Month: La Sala Rossa

Venue of the Month: La Sala Rossa

It is going to be an extremely busy September in Montreal. Not only will there be an abundance of shows around our city but there will be enough great shows to make your head spin. This simple fact made choosing a venue of the month extremely difficult but after carefully surveying all the venues in the city we had to go with the lovely Sala Rossa.

Take a look at all the highlights from an extremely busy month at Sala Rossa, our venue of the month.
