Sennheiser Brings Premium Sound Experience To Montreal's Heavy MTL 2011

MONTREAL, CANADA (Top40 Charts/ Sennheiser Official Website) Audio manufacturer Sennheiser announced that it is an official sponsor of Heavy MTL 2011 -- North America's premier destination heavy music festival which takes place at Parc Jean-Drapeau on Ile Saint-Helene in Montreal on July 23rd and 24th. Last year, the world-class festival drew 42,500 fans and featured globally recognized bands including Slayer and Megadeth.

Throughout Heavy MTL 2011, Sennheiser will maintain a space onsite where festival goers will be able to demo Sennheiser's premium headphones. Also, by signing up on Sennheiser Canada's Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sennheiser-Canada/129577517095569) and Twitter (https://twitter.com/#!/SennheiserCAN) pages, music fans will have the opportunity to enter several contests and get the scoop on headphone giveaways. A Guitar Hero contest will be featured at the booth. Music fans can try their skill at each level: beginner, intermediate and advanced. Contestants from each category will be eligible to win a headphone package to be announced on site.

"We are proud to be a sponsor of Heavy MTL 2011 and look forward sharing what will be a unique and memorable experience for music fans," commented Anne Joyce, director of marketing for Sennheiser Canada. "We will have plenty of fun activities and contests while we are there. We encourage fans to take a walk through the park and discover stunning new music powered by the extraordinary sound of Sennheiser."
