"One of the most original musical events in Montréal, this free festival takes place on Sundays, near the monument to Sir George-Étienne Cartier and in Mount Royal Park's surrounding green spaces. A colourful gathering of drummers, dancers, vendors and their admiring audiences. For twenty years, Montrealers and visitors have come to play music and dance, or just watch and listen." That's how toursime Canada describes les tams-tams but trust me , it's much more than this .

Before continuing the project , search for les tam-tams du mont Royal on youtube to get an idea about the event , as mentioned , every Sunday people gather in Parc Mont-Royal to share this energetic yet mystical event .

On the beats of the African-like drumming , people from all different classes , different races , religions , ideologies , backgrounds and ages gather to indulge in the mysticity of the music .

It's a unique experience and you'll notice from the pictures that people - naturally - interpret it differently , some will dance , others will laugh , you'll notice that many people just close their eyes and let the music lead them , as if it's a sufi ritual .

The experience aside from being unique is very human . As i've mentioned , it gathers people . They all become equal and enjoy the moment as human-beings .

Let's encourage different events and activities that don't conform to the mainstream culture and not condemn them .

Let's be different ! let's be ourselves !
