Royal Montreal Curling Club is a piece of sporting infrastructure that has been in continuous use since 1807, making it the oldest active sports club in North America. Tucked into downtown Montreal, the club operates a historic three-sheet ice rink beneath a distinctive arched shed, paired with a clubhouse that doubles as a living archive of curling’s past.

Recent upgrades to the ice-making system ensure top-tier playing conditions, while the bar and dining facilities allow the club to host public rentals, private events, and corporate outings without losing its old-world rhythm. For newcomers, the Learn to Curl program offers a structured, coach-led entry into what’s often called “chess on ice,” blending technique, strategy, and social life in equal measure.
