First known as the Molson Centre when construction was completed in 1996 the arena was renamed the Centre Bell in February of 2002. This new arena replaced the aging Montreal Forum that was built in 1924 and was considered the most storied building in hockey history. Located in downtown Montreal and with a capacity of 22,500 seats the Centre Bell is the largest arena in North America and one of the most technologically advanced and versatile venues in the world. It’s home to legendary Montreal Canadiens Hockey Club and the headquarters for the Gillett Entertainment Group.

Is a sports and entertainment complex.
Home of the Montreal Canadiens.
It has a seating capacity of 21,273, making it the largest of any National Hockey League (NHL) arena.
Founded in 1909, the Canadiens are the oldest continuously operating professional ice hockey team and the only existing NHL club to predate the founding of th NHL, as well as one of the oldest North American sports franchises.
The Canadiens have won 24 Stanley Cups (including their first in 1916, before the NHL existed), more than any other team.

Most amazing place to be for sporting event. That is when you're cheering for the local team! You better get up early to get tickets to see the Montreal Canadiens otherwise you will pay big price, BIG BIG price!
