Our Story

About The Show
Montreal Urban Race is an city-wide competition which involves several teams competing in challenges set up by the Gamemaster.
Our mission is to inform our audience about various Montreal groups, businesses, art & history through a reality show.
The race is brought to you by the "What's Up Montreal?" Team and Bell Media
The show is created by an Urban Planning student from Concordia University, Baghdig. The idea came to him when one of his professors gave his students a very detailed walking tour of the South-West region of Montreal. Baghdig wanted to make a game out of it, by leaving blanks in the explanations; creating a treasure hunt feel to the game. The tour included both historical and artistic elements allowing one to explore and discover the city with a new perspective.
