Finding us in Montreal
Located in the very heart of downtown Montreal, the Festival
site is contained in the four block radius of Ste-Catherine, President-Kennedy,
Bleury and St-Urbain streets. The readily identifiable landmarks of
Complexe Desjardins and the Place des Arts are right at the center
of the festivities.
Given that certain streets are closed to traffic during the
Festival and that parking spots downtown are at a bit of a premium,
the best ways of getting to the Festival are by metro (subway),
by taxi or on foot.
Subway station
Place-des-Arts, on the green line, offers direct entrance to the Festival site.
For those with no choice but to come by car, there are
various paid parking possibilities surrounding the site and even right
on it.
Of course, bicycles and in-line skates are equally good
methods of transportation, but bear in mind they can't be used on the
site. (Safety first…).
