Olympic Stadium

Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Olympic Stadium concert venue in Montreal, Quebec

Why it matters

Montreal’s Olympic Stadium remains one of Canada’s strangest and most recognizable large venues. Built for the 1976 Olympics, the concrete bowl and leaning tower have survived decades of roof problems, renovations and changing uses, yet major events here still carry a scale no other Quebec venue can match.

Getting there

Pie-IX Metro station is the straightforward way to reach Montreal's Olympic Stadium. The Olympic Park site is large, so confirm the entrance used for your concert before you come out of the station and start walking across the grounds.

Bag policy

Entry screening at Olympic Stadium follows the rule posted for the event configuration. Review the official venue policy on show day, especially if you need a medical, parenting or accessibility exception.

Local tips

Pie-IX Metro station is beside the Olympic Park and is the clear first choice. The site is enormous, so check which entrance your concert uses before you surface from the station. The Botanical Garden and Hochelaga area are nearby if you are making an afternoon of it.
