Holiday Puces POP 2011 will be at St-Enfant Jesus Church (5035 St-Dominique).
Every Puces POP fair is curated to bring the community a diverse and consistently evolving selection of artwork. We receive many more applications than we can accept, so we encourage everyone (both new and returning vendors) to spend time putting together their best possible application. We send out the call for vendors with full application requirements roughly two months before each fair. To make sure you receive the vendor call and find out about upcoming submission deadlines, join the Puces POP mailing list.
Table fees vary depending on the season, location, and table size. Contact us for more info.
Nope, 'tis FREE!

Fashion POP is a fashion design competition showcasing the work of up-and-coming Montreal designers. Each fall, Puces POP invites six new emerging designers to create a mini-collection of looks that are debuted in a runway show at the opening party of POP Montreal. The winning designer, as decided on by a panel of industry judges, receives a cash prize and editorial spread in a fashion magazine.

The Record Fair is a two-day convention for local and international record labels, secondhand vinyl resellers, and music shops, that takes place during POP Montreal. It is free to attend and open to the public. For info on renting a table at The Record Fair, contact: puces [at] popmontreal [dot] com.
The Rock Lotto is an event where we invite local musicians to be mixed and matched into "super groups" and then give them one week to write and rehearse 2 original songs. The songs are performed at a final show where a panel of judges vote for their favourite. The winning band gets a cake and the honor of winning.
POP Bingo is... bingo. With beer and prizes!
Design POP is a competition where we invite artists to submit designs for new POP Montreal merchandise. The winning design as decided by a panel of industry judges gets printed and distributed on limited edition tshirts and other merch. The 2011 winners were Tyler Rauman and Bridget Moser.
