Event Custom Containers Used During Festivals This August
Conterm has been functioning as a provider of event custom containers for a wide range of both local and international clientele since 1972. Once more, we have had the privilege of contributing to the production of Montreal’s biggest events by providing our modified event containers. These events include the International Balloon Festival of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Festival mode & Design Montreal and Les Jardins Gamelin.
Our event custom containers have been repurposed to meet the specific needs for hosting such festivals. Some ways in which these containers have been used include secured equipment storage, walls and entrances, outdoor storage, kiosks, and electrical control rooms. Read below to find out more about these signature events based in Montreal.
