Local Montréal - cultural and gastronomic tour of The Quartier des Spectacles

“In downtown Montreal, there exists a territory covering slightly more than a square kilometer where the cultural activity is particularly concentrated: 28 venues and 80 sites of artistic diffusion together weave, season after season, the rich hours of Montreal’s cultural life. This is the Quartier des Spectacles, the official name given recently to a quadrilateral where culture unfolds on an effervescent world.” – Montréal La Créative, Éditions Héliotrope
