Montreal is the destination of the moment. So, whether you won our November giveaway or not, you should still book an #abovepar visit. After all, there’s nothing better than staying at Hotel Gault, eating at L’Express, drinking at Buvette chez Simone, and shopping at La Canadienne.
When packing for Montreal in the winter, it’s best to prepare for frigid temperatures but warm personalities. The welcoming neighborhoods and bustling nightlife make up for the cold wins, as long as you’re dressed accordingly. From casual athleisure for day-touring to metallic mesh frocks for drinks after dark, here’s everything our editors would pack for a trip to Montreal this year.

Prepare for any weather in Montreal with La Canadienne’s City Dry™ tech. These booties are functional and chic.
Apparis Sai Short Coat

This fashionable and functional faux fur is worth packing a bigger suitcase for. It’s just perfect for a winter trip to Montreal.
Sidia Nirvana Hand Serum
From $36
Offset dry skin and indulge in self-care when you’re traveling with Sidia. The brand was named after a Canadian bubbie and we’re in love.
Jenny Bird Dane Two-Tone Bangle Set

Why pack one bangle when you can pack two? We’re here for a mixed metal moment in Montreal.
Lululemon Dance Studio Relaxed-Fit Mid-Rise Cargo Pant

Citizens of Humanity Ayla Baggy With Tuxedo Stripe

No, you don’t have to wear a Canadian tuxedo in Montreal. But, we won’t judge you for nodding to the fashion staple with a side striped pair of denim.

This is the perfect pendant to travel with. It will match everything you wear in Montreal, from leggings to a little black dress.
