ABOUT LES JARDINS GAMELIN

ABOUT LES JARDINS GAMELIN

In the spring of 2015, Place Émilie-Gamelin, located in the Quartier des Spectacles, showed a new face to residents and visitors with Les Jardins Gamelin. The initiative, unprecedented in scale, is led by the Quartier des Spectacles Partnership and produced in collaboration with Pépinière & co and the support of the borough of Ville-Marie.

The initiative’s aim is to encourage all Montrealers to embrace and use this central space, and to make it one of the city’s leading tourist attractions.
