Easter weekend is April 19th to 22nd this year. Do you have any plans for the Easter weekend? But it's the Easter weekend, so many places are closed or have shorter hours during Easter weekend.
Generally, Government offices (federal & Provincial) are closed on Friday and Monday and City of Montreal and borough offices are closed all weekend, however, boroughs have the regular pickup of garbage and recycling. Most banks are also closed on Friday but open on Monday. Many restaurants are open over the Easter weekend depending on the location. However, we highly recommend you to call ahead of time.
SAQ stores are usually open on Good Friday and Easter Monday. On Easter Sunday, SAQ Express stores open until 10 pm as usual, and some SAQ stores are open too. But SAQ Sélection & Signature stores are normally closed on Easter Sunday and SAQ stores located inside shopping malls are closed as well.
