Looking Back on a Memorable Evening: Bulles Jazz Montreal 2026

When Dance Meets Generosity and Artistic Boldness

On Wednesday, March 11, 2026, at the Atrium of Les Grands Ballets Canadiens, we had the pleasure of bringing together friends, partners, and donors for the second edition of Bulles Jazz Montreal. This event surprised, moved, and brought our guests closer together, while allowing us to forge valuable bonds with our donors and partners.

“Thank you all for your trust: your support keeps the company and its creative work alive,” Catherine Cardinal, Assistant Executive Director – Development and Partnerships

An immersive experience at the heart of creation

From the very start of the evening, guests were immersed in a rare artistic experience: four original works created by company dancers - Troy Atamanuk, Yosmell Calderon Mejias, Zack Preece, and Madeleine Salhany - were performed by their peers. This unique moment offered a glimpse into the creative process of BJM_Lab.

Become a volunteer!

BJM brings dance to life with passion and boldness. To continue this mission and offer unforgettable experiences to the public, we need committed, curious and enthusiastic people… like you!

Being a volunteer means:

Contribute directly to an iconic cultural organization
Experience the excitement of our events from the inside
Meet new inspiring people
Develop new skills
And, above all, to feel the profound joy of contributing to something greater than oneself — a real morale boost!
