What it's known for
The Canadiens have won 24 Stanley Cups, more than any other team, and their banners and retired numbers fill the rafters. With room for over 21,000 fans, the Bell Centre is the NHL’s biggest arena.
Games are an event in Montreal, with a passionate, mostly French-speaking crowd and a long tradition of singing.
Getting there
The arena is downtown and connects to the Metro (Lucien-L’Allier and Bonaventure stations) and Montreal’s underground city, so you can arrive without going outside in winter.
Tips for your visit
- U.S. visitors need a passport, and prices are in Canadian dollars.
- Use the underground city to stay warm in winter.
- Canadiens tickets are in high demand; buy early.
