Looking for event posters
Where in town would I see the widest selection of current event posters? Looking for club nights and shows rather than stage events, but anything really.

If you simply want a list of upcoming live shows (concerts), I’d drop by Cheap Thrills, they print out all the bands coming into town right next to their cash registers.
Or go to a venue, they always have posters put up inside or outside. Le National, La Tulipe, Club Soda, Metropolis, L’Olympia, etc.

If not specialist record stores (if those still exist), culture-y places like cafés (Laika has a wall of posters just through its windows); hair salons and clubby boutiques. Other than that, Facebook and MySpace, because most people do e-flyers / e-vites / event pages nowadays. Done a few myself in the day.

electrical poles on saint-viateur are usually good for artsy indie show posters (although probably not the widest range of genres). I associate club nights more with flyers than posters, but what do i know.

http://cultmontreal.com/events/ & http://justshows.com/montreal/ . Or did you actually want physical printed posters?

Actual printed posters to look at. I’m a graphic designer in my real life.
AH: yes, flyers are more usual, but I have a poster to make.

Seripop or casa del popolo have lots of physical samples you can browse through. I’d pst the online link but somehow my post gets lost. google montrealnightlife – your spam filter seems to cut me out.
