Montreal - Place-des-Arts

The Place-des-Arts metro station, on the northern edge of downtown Montréal, gives access to the city's modern center for the performing arts, the Place-des-Arts, built in 1964. It contains four venues - the Salle Wilfried-Pelletier (capacity about 3,000), home to the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal and where Canada's top ballet companies take the stage, the Théâtre Maisonneuve, seating about 1300, the Théâtre Port-Royal, seating 755, and the recital room, the Café de la Place, with seating for 138.
