I've got an Airbnb around downtown but what's gonna be the most convenient place for getting around the whole weekend?

I'm driving up but would prefer not to drive to events

For the hosts in Montreal having no more requests, you have to know that by default not verified profiles have been removed of the hosts list. So to retrieve requests for the couch crash or other, you need to be verified.

The full schedule is yet to come, but spots to this visit are VERY limited
and tickets sell VERY fast, so we wanted to publish it early:
https://l1nq.com/xlhhwmn

This is a guided tour with a professional guide.
It is pretty expensive (60$) and spots are very limited.

THERE WILL BE ALTERNATIVE EVENTS at the same time (free and/or cheaper)
for people who don't have the budget or are not that interested,
so don't worry if you're not an architecture buff.

We just wanted to offer the opportunity to those who might be into it.
They keep the tour groups very small since Habitat 67 is a residential area,
so those who are interested should get a ticket quickly.

All details are on the sub-event page.
Habitat 67 guided tour will be hosted by Evgeny Popov.

Want a souvenir? Order your t-shirt of the event here:

Please note that we do not get any profit from the sale.

A big shoutout to fellow CS member Aranza for her help with getting these done :-)
