Spectrum de Montréal

A broad range of Canadian and international performers, usually second-tier celebrities unlikely to fill the larger Centre Bell, use this converted movie theater. Rock groups on the order of Grimskunk and Phish are among the higher-profile acts, comedians are sometimes booked, and the space also hosts segments of the city's annual jazz festival. Seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Tickets are priced according to attraction. Long-term construction is underway to expand the Spectrum into a major cultural complex, with concert hall, 13 cinemas for mainstream and art-house films, a jazz club, a book-and-music store, and restaurants, so call ahead to ascertain the current status.

318 rue Ste-Catherine ouest.Phone: 800/361-4595.Métro: Place-des-Arts; then take the Bleury exit.
