The BUNKR Village : a unique pop-up village and an art installation
BUNKR was conceived to provide the citizens and visitors of Central District with an enjoyable space where they can get together, exchange ideas and converse among themselves in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere.
The pop-up village will be a vibrant landmark that embodies Montreal’s culture; celebrating the community and serving as a daily gathering place for residents, employees, and visitors of all ages throughout the day and evening.
Businesses, traders, and local artists will be given the opportunity to showcase their products and creations to a wider audience. The pop-up village will feature a diverse range of pop-stores along with a beer garden, hip cafes, food shops and art galleries to nurture the community’s need for cultural experiences. In addition, BUNKR will be hosting various cultural programs, creative and business workshops, live performances and many more events that will be sure to attract a considerable amount of visitors from the neighbourhood and beyond.
