Place des Arts
THIS COMPLEX of halls and theatres is Montreal’s prime center for the performing arts. Both the Opéra de Montréal (Montreal Opera) and the Orchéstre Symphonique de Montréal (Montreal Symphony Orchestra) make their home in the Salle Wilfrid Pelletier, the largest of the center’s five halls.
The buildings of Place des Arts share a modern, spacious central plaza with the outstanding Musée d’art contemporain.
