Place des Arts, located at 175 Sainte-Catherine Street West in Montreal, is a major cultural complex and the heart of the city’s performing arts scene. The venue includes several theaters, such as the Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier and the Théâtre Maisonneuve, as well as the Maison symphonique. Visitors can access the complex via the Place-des-Arts metro station, and parking is available at 1450 Saint-Urbain Street.

Currently, the exterior of the building is undergoing renovation, but shows proceed as scheduled.

The box office is open Monday through Friday from 4:00 PM or two hours before the first show, and on Saturdays from noon. Hours vary on Sundays and holidays based on performance times. The complex offers a vibrant environment with free exhibitions, shops, and dining options available before or after events. For assistance, visitors can contact customer service at 514 842-2112.
