Things to Consider for Your Fashion Show in Montreal
Before making any security deposit, here are some things worth considering when planning an event in Montreal.
Advantages
-
Despite being a major city in Canada and one of the largest in North America, Montreal remains among the most affordable big cities. No matter the type of show or event you’re hosting, you’ll get the most bang for your buck in Montreal.
-
Whether you need the most modern lighting rigs, displays, or audiovisual equipment, in Montreal, you can find state-of-the-art equipment for rent at local rental businesses and save a lot of money in the process.
-
Public transport in Montreal is one of the best in Canada, with a comprehensive network of metro stations, buses, and more. Neither you nor your attendees will have trouble getting around, even without a car!
Disadvantages
-
While it’s true that public transport in Montreal is incredible, it has to be said that rush-hour traffic is simply paralyzing. Ranked among the worst cities in Canada when it comes to traffic, you’ll have to plan your event carefully to avoid rush hour.
-
Firmly set as one of the most famous cities in Canada, it’s no wonder Montreal gets millions of visitors every year. While this is very good for the city, it can make finding a venue during high season a real challenge.
-
Winters in Montreal are extremely cold, with below-freezing temperatures the norm. If you’re planning your event during this season, you’ll have to go for an indoor venue.

How to Plan a Fashion Show in Montreal
Hosting the perfect fashion show is no small feat, especially if you're working for companies or organizations interested in making a splash. Here are the steps to get you on the right track.
Create a Budget – The first step in organizing the most memorable of fashion shows is figuring out your budget. Knowing how much you can allocate to each aspect of your event won’t only save you money, but it’ll also make it a lot easier to plan.
Pick the Theme – After you’ve figured out your budget, it’s time to pick a theme. The theme you choose will set the atmosphere for your show and is key to making your event a total success. Take all the time you need and find the most breathtaking spaces for your show directly from the Giggster app!
Gather Your Team – Hosting a fashion show is not a one-person job—you’ll need a team to help you out. From stylists and models to fashion directors, make sure you have all you need before the big day.
Prepare Your Space – The last step is to prepare your event space. Hire a professional decorator to set the stage, prepare some light refreshments, and get ready to welcome your guests. Before you know it, you’ll be planning your next big show!
How to Save Money on Your Fashion Show in Montreal
You don't have to go way over your initial budget for your performance to be a total success. Request a quote on all expenses, compare it with the industry standard, and follow these tips to get the most bang for your buck.
Do you have flexibility with the date?
If you’re planning your event on a budget, the best time of the year to plan it in Montreal is during the low season, from late November to early March. This is when demand for venues is at its lowest, and you’ll also get great deals on hotels and flights. Your attendees will thank you for your thoughtfulness!
Stick to your initial budget.
One of the most common ways to overspend when planning an event or show is to forget about your initial budget. If you’re looking to save money, the easiest way is to follow your initial assessment and not get swayed by unnecessary expenses.
Pick a non-traditional space.
Similar to wedding venues, spaces that are marketed as fashion show venues may be subject to unfair markups. If you want to find the most affordable event spaces for your show, you may want to look into unconventional spaces, like galleries and warehouses, and repurpose them to fit your needs.
