This event was just posted on Facebook; you can find it there, but I've also copied the info here. The people organizing it are the ones who organized last year's vigil. It's just an hour long, so easy to get home in time to listen to the broadcast of tonight's concert, for those of us who couldn't go.

Hallelujah — Projection nomade + Chœur
Mardi le 7 novembre, 2017 à 18h.
Saint-Laurent / Plateau Mont-Royal
Départ: Viaduc Van Horne sur Saint-Laurent
Arrivée: Parc du Portugal (au coin de Marie-Anne)
Nous vous invitons le 7 novembre prochain à vous joindre à une projection cinématographique nomade organisée en l’honneur de Leonard Cohen. Ayant lieu un an jour pour jour après le décès du chanteur, l’évènement a pour but de rassembler la communauté afin de célébrer sa mémoire et son oeuvre. Durant la marche, des vidéos de plusieurs artistes chantant Hallelujah de Cohen seront projetées à l’aide de petits projecteurs portatifs; les participants pourront, s’il le veulent, transporter ces projecteurs tour à tour.
Nous marcherons sur Saint-Laurent (direction sud) vers le Parc du Portugal (situé au coin de Marie-Anne), là où nous pourrons nous joindre à un chœur mené par Kathy Kennedy afin de chanter la chanson une dernière fois (à 18h30).
Pour vous joindre au parcours, veuillez vous rendre au Viaduc Van Horne (coin de Saint-Laurent et de l’Arcade) le 7 novembre à 18h. Vous pouvez aussi nous rejoindre directement au Parc du Portugal à 18h30 pour participer au chœur.
