Eurokracy Montreal

GRAB YOUR TUQUE AND YOUR TIMBITS, WE’RE GOING TO CANADA’S BIGGEST VW/AUDI SHOW

- Ezekiel Wheeler

Besides great donuts, inventing poutine (French fries with cheese curds and gravy), and being home to some of the funniest comedians on earth, the Canadians know how to throw a pretty great party. To be a little more specific, French-Canadians know how to throw a sensory overload party.

Case in point—Eurokracy Montreal 2017. What started as a hotel takeover at Waterfest quickly overstayed its welcome at the New Jersey VW show. It became so popular that the hotel owners, neighboring businesses, police, and the city government became fed up with their shenanigans and told the founders to find a new location…or else.

Instead of stopping the party altogether, the ingenious crew decided to launch its own events. Eurokracy was born and it’s been growing in size every year. While attendance figures aren’t released, it easily attracts thousands of people and hundreds of enthusiast-built European rides, some more complete than others.
