Score big with unique Habs experiences

Make game night even suite-er

The Bell Centre is the highest-capacity arena in the National Hockey League (NHL), with seating for 21,273 hockey-crazy fans. And crazy it can be, leading to a happy and enthusiastic atmosphere that is unmatched anywhere else in the NHL. It lends itself to a great fan experience, as do the always awesome Bell Centre suites — private hosting rooms with great views of the action that cater to groups — that are part of the Nightly Suites package. It includes 12 tickets (with an option to purchase an additional 8 tickets) to that night’s Montréal Canadiens game, two parking passes, an open bar with a dedicated suite attendant, and a private entrance with concierge service.

Roof-raising good times

It’s a one-of-a-kind room with an unparalleled view: the Renaissance Montréal Loft, a cool partnership between the Bell Centre and downtown luxury lifestyle hotel Renaissance Montréal. Suspended up in the rafters of the Bell Centre with the Habs’ Stanley Cup championship banners, this exclusive, stylishly designed loft space offers an incomparable VIP good time. And like any good loft, it even comes with a swing. The Renaissance Montréal Loft package includes 20 tickets, hors d’oeuvres and an open bar, a dedicated suite attendant, a private entrance with concierge service, and sightlines that make it impossible to miss any of the on-ice action.

How’s this for an apex experience…

For any diehard Habs fan — or hockey lover period — the aptly named Ultimate Experience is a dream come true, a bucket list checkmark and a little slice of heaven all rolled up in one unforgettable package. Designed for two or four people, the Ultimate Experience consists of premium tickets, a parking spot in the players’ private garage, dinner for two at the private Restaurant La Mise au Jeu (which translates to “face-off” in English), Habs jerseys autographed by the player of your choice, access to a private lounge, a guided tour of the media lounge and press gallery, and access to the Canadiens’ dressing room and post-game press conference. Ultimate, indeed.

This’ll get you two minutes for having too much fun

Enjoy a VIP Locker Room Experience with 10 of your best buds or fave clients by inviting them to the hockey club president’s private suite, located right next to the Canadiens’ dressing room. Watch the players make their way through the tunnel onto the ice from the suite before taking in the game from the best seats in the Bell Centre, directly behind the players’ bench. This package also includes food and an open bar, a parking space, a dedicated attendant, private entrance and a gift bag for each guest.

Live like a legend

The aptly titled Legendary Experience is a seven-person adventure for the ages. It includes seven tickets located in the first row between the penalty box and the visiting team’s tunnel as well as a pre-game gourmet dinner at the exclusive Mise au Jeu restaurant, including the chef’s menu and a half-bottle of wine per person. And best of all, enjoy the company of a Canadiens alumni for the duration of the dinner (list of alumni to be determined).

Tours you can put in the win column

On game nights, see the Bell Centre like you’ve never seen it before with behind-the-scenes VIP Guided Tours that allow you to experience the inner workings of a Canadiens home game before it starts. These one-hour-and-45-minute tours get you into hallowed territory such as the penalty box, press conference room, press box, Scotiabank Alumni Lounge and game production studio. You can watch the warm-up period from the Zamboni tunnel or choose the Platinum VIP visit plan to be chosen as one of four lucky fans that get to watch warm-ups from the penalty box. You’ll also receive a gift card to the team’s Tricolore Sports boutique as well as an official warm-up puck and an accreditation commemorating your visit to the Bell Centre.

High-flying fun

Intended primarily for business customers, the Air Canada Signature Club offers its guests a luxurious private lounge, gourmet food stations, in-seat service and the most spacious armchairs in the Bell Centre. The club’s chefs will prepare a varied cuisine that evolves throughout the evening, and the menu will be different every game night to satisfy all appetites. There is an open bar all evening and mixologists will also be on hand to serve original cocktails as well as a wide range of wine and beer.

Join the club!

As the newest hospitality offering at the Bell Centre, Le Parterre stands out as the Bell Centre’s first premium club located at ice level, and which provides direct access to the arena’s seating. Le Parterre delivers an all-inclusive VIP experience for hockey enthusiasts. In its restaurant, located beneath the stands, season ticket holders can enjoy gourmet stations along with an open bar featuring a curated selection of beer and wine, a private entrance, discounts at the team’s official store and first right to purchase playoff tix.

How about a pre-game appointment at the salon?

Billed as the “premier destination for your pre-game festivities,” Le Salon Desjardins offers exclusive access to a private lounge, bar, dining room and hosting areas, and accommodates up to 200 folks. A diverse selection of dishes presented at multiple culinary stations and a variety of cocktails and wines is the name of the game here. And sweetening the deal, guests have the option to keep their table for return visits during intermissions. You’ll never want to watch a game at home again.
