Tam-Tams (Sunday drum circle and informal movement, Mount Royal)
On a summer Sunday, the active-social move is the Tam-Tams. At the foot of Mount Royal by the Cartier Monument, thousands gather for a spontaneous drum circle, and around it people dance for hours, slackline between the trees, and move on the slopes. It's a free, joyful, genuinely active afternoon — dance is a workout, and the communal energy is unmatched. Combine it with a mountain run for a full active Sunday.
The Sunday Tam-Tams gathering at Mount Royal's base — a drum circle with informal dancing, slacklining, and movement on the slopes. Free, communal, active.
