Taking place in Montreal during the Canadian Thanksgiving holiday weekend (which happens to coincide with the American Columbus holiday weekend), it has set spectacular standards in the art of throwing mind-blowing parties since 1991.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>This year, the Black &amp; Blue team is teaming up with the <strong>Priape Group<\/strong> and with <strong>New York\u2019s Saint at Large<\/strong> to present the <strong>23rd edition of the Black &amp; Blue Festival from October 9 to 15 under the special theme of \u201cThe Reinvented Wheel\u201d<\/strong>. For the first time, the team is moving the Main Event, which usually takes place at the Olympic Stadium or the Palais des Congr\u00e8s, to a spectacular new venue called L\u2019Arsenal. \u201cThis opens up new doors and avenues to explore for our creative team. L\u2019Arsenal is now a major Contemporary art center but was, originally, a shipyard for commercial vessels. So basically, it is huge, has lots of production potential and is located in the new trendy part of Montreal (Griffin town). It\u2019s just perfect for the Black &amp; Blue event !\u201d, says Robert J. Vezina, the Founding President of the Black &amp; Blue.<\/p>\n<p>Adding to the enthusiasm of organizing the event at L\u2019Arsenal, the BBCM team is also excited to announce <strong>an incredible DJ line-up<\/strong> for the <strong>Black &amp; Blue Main Event on Sunday October 13 from 6 PM to Noon the next day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Again this year, two rooms will allow the participants to enjoy both house and trance music.
