The Montreal Casino is one of those places where the city’s past and present sit side by side without pretending otherwise. Built into two former Expo 67 pavilions on Notre-Dame Island, it’s a reminder of the era when Montréal showed itself off to the world—and a marker of how the site has been reinvented ever since. The complex stretches across multiple floors of gaming rooms, bars, and performance spaces, all wrapped in the angular architecture of the old French and Québec pavilions. It draws a steady mix of night owls, cyclists arriving from the river paths, and metro riders crossing over from Parc Jean-Drapeau.
