Snow Party

Just when we’d decided to detox, along came sugar-shack season to do us in.

Lose the guilt, throw on your Chanel snowsuit and head to Piknik Electronik’s outdoor rave for one last day of indulgence. This year, organizers are bringing along a traditional cabane à sucre to their annual Île Sainte-Hélène shin-dig.

After noshing on sausage and crêpes smothered in maple syrup, dance off the extra poundage under the L'Homme sculpture, while DJs spin and calories burn. Thankfully the snow suit allows for expansion. We’ll detox next weekend.

April 4 and 5, 1 p.m.-9 p.m., Parc Jean-Drapeau, www.piknicelectronik.com
Tickets, $30 (including brunch) at Moog Audio, 3828 Blvd. St-Laurent, Montreal, 514-284-7434 or www.ticketpro.ca
