It’s now a tradition at Cominar centres. Towards the end of summer, our destinations welcome their communities for a few days filled with laughter and smiles. This year, five Cominar centres are participating. They will enrich the daily lives of families and neighbourhood residents with a fun-filled program of activities. Mail Champlain, Galeries de Hull, Galeries Rive Nord, DUO Centre Laval, and Rockland Centre are all joining in for the 2024 edition of Cominar's Block Parties.
“The decision to continue the event this year is based on the success we saw last year. It was an incredible experience to see the community come together, retailers thrive, and customers leave with heads full of memories,” explains Sara Naciri, Marketing Coordinator at Galeries de Hull.
Connecting the Community
Our Block Parties are also an opportunity to build lasting connections with partners and external collaborators. At Mail Champlain, for example, the Longueuil Agglomeration Police Service will be there for a second year, having a coffee chat with the community on-site. At Galeries de Hull, guided tours of the neighbourhood will be held by the Société d’histoire de l’Outaouais. At Galeries Rive-Nord, creative workshops will be presented by the Association Culturelle en Arts de Repentigny.
The involvement of our retailers is another essential ingredient of this summer success. No fewer than 20 of them are contributing to Cominar's Block Parties. These events thus become an opportunity for our partners and tenants to shine with the destination’s clientele. The community, in turn, benefits from meeting them and discovering the attractive offerings of their favourite Cominar centre.
