We have seen Melissa Etheridge, Heart, Wicked and many more shows. The indoor parking is a steal at $10. The seating and the acoustics are perfect. The staff are very attentive. If in a loge bring a small flashlight as there is no in-floor lighting. Check out the outside musical swings in Cartier des Spectacles. Free.

One of the best venues ever ................... the show was magnificent in this hall. Seating, lighting, sound and temperature were perfect. Easy parking, and a a decent price to park ($10) Canadian.

The complex itself has been revived and... More

This performing arts centre has number of great theatres and an array of great events happening throughout the year. Even if you don't have time to go to a show, it is worth visiting this beautiful space in the middle of the city. As the name implies this place is all about arts. Those who can't go inside can sit... More
