If you’re having a champagne kind of day, check out Veuve Clicquot’s launch of the Secret Garden In the Sun, located on a hidden terrasse in Old Montreal that’ll be done up in decor both floral and swanky — the event description promises a glamorous and “Instagrammable” scene populated by local celebs.

La Vitrola (4602 St-Laurent), 9 p.m., $10/$13

Check out the Fringe Festival show A Dyke’s Guide to Fair Play, an ironic exploration of safe spaces structured as a dystopian game show.
