Montréal is among North America’s leading convention cities, hosting prestigious events every year. In fact, many international organizations are headquartered here. The Palais des congrès enjoys an ideal location, serving as a bridge between the downtown core and Old Montréal, home to the Old Port and a score of major tourist attractions. The Palais is accessible by metro and is also linked to Montréal’s underground city, a pedestrian corridor that enables shoppers to go from one mall to another without ever setting foot outdoors. In this compact city, fitting leisure activities into a convention schedule is a cinch. Countless shops, rafting excursions with a view of the city, major exhibitions, luxurious spas… Relaxation and escape are the name of the game for conventioneers and their spouses!

Skyscrapers and historic quarters share space in this friendly and dynamic city. With its whirlwind of festivals celebrating song and dance, jazz and comedy, movies and fireworks, Montréal offers a superb setting for your events and functions. At any time, conventioneers can enjoy their pick of world-class hotels and fine dining establishments whose reputations spread far beyond our borders.
