Canadian Coupon Book

Exclusive Deals & Discounts – Bienvenue à Montpelier!

Montpelier Alive, in collaboration with over 30 downtown businesses and Capital City Farmers Market vendors, is excited to introduce the Passport to Montpelier — a free, bilingual coupon book designed to welcome Canadian visitors (especially from Quebec) back to Vermont’s capital city.

The Passport offers exclusive deals, discounts, and special offers from local shops, restaurants, galleries, and more. It’s valid through July 2026 and includes:

• Bilingual content (English & French).

• A self-guided walking tour of Montpelier’s historic downtown and glowing bridges.

• Coupons for shopping, dining, art, outdoor gear, and more.

A Warm Invitation from Montpelier

The idea for the Passport came from Bill Butler, co-owner of Artisans Hand Craft Gallery, as a way to extend a heartfelt welcome during a time of political strain.

“Vous êtes les bienvenus — you are welcome here, and we value your presence in our city,” says Butler.

Elissa Campbell, Artisans Hand’s manager, adds:

“Montpelier is full of independent shops, amazing local food, and art. The Passport is a reminder of what’s waiting here: community, culture, and a warm welcome.”
