As the days get shorter and the weather gets colder, Canadians and travelers alike see the change in seasons as the perfect backdrop to some of the country’s best festivals and events. Here are some of the top spots across the country to party in your snowsuit this winter.

Each year, electronic music fans flock to Montreal for Igloofest , a four-weekend long event that brings top acts from around the world outdoors. The festival has been lighting up the charming Old Port neighborhood since 2007. Besides amazing music, Igloofest has a ton on offer for festival goers to partake in -- including a kitschy winter wear competition aptly named "Iglooswag."
