Celebrations continue throughout the regions of Quebec to celebrate Saint-Jean-Baptiste - in Montreal, two parades will be held. 

The parades will begin on opposite ends of de Maisonneuve - one from the East, and one from the West. Their destination will be Place des Festivals.

The processions, called "Le Nordet" and "Le Suroit," will bring together artists and performers from across disciplines.

On Saturday night, tens of thousands of people disregarded the forecast to attend two Fete Nationale shows in Montreal and Quebec City.

Overall, more than 1,200 events were planned throughout the province this weekend.

In the Montreal region, more than 50 public parties were planned. 

So far, the festivities have been peaceful.
