Let the good times roll in Montréal!

It is the biggest casino in Canada, located on Île Notre-Dame, just minutes away from downtown Montréal.

Originally designed by architect Jean Faugeron and associated architect André Blouin as the French Pavillion on the site of Expo 67 – the most successful World’s fair of the 20th century, drawing over 50 million visitors – the massive casino complex opened in October 1993 and features three interconnected buildings: the iconic French Pavilion, the neighbouring Québec Pavilion (which today houses the Cabaret du Casino concert hall) and an annex built by the casino.

Inside, adults (18+) will discover a colourful and exciting playground of restaurants, bars and lounge areas popular with tourists and locals alike. From slots and gaming tables to live concerts by top local entertainers, visitors can enjoy a leisurely night out, all under one roof.

Immersive ARcade experience

The Casino de Montréal new ARcade by Moment Factory gaming experience in the casino’s adjoining Pavillon du Québec fuses multimedia and video game technology in two play areas which offer six immersive games with three levels of difficulty. Up to six players at a time can play the games which have play times of either 30 or 60 minutes each.

The space also includes an area with over 20 fun games and a bar, which hosts a DJ a few nights a week. It also offers a menu specially designed for this environment.

The entire level is dedicated to a new offer without games of chance where visitors can have fun differently.
