Asked about the venue
About MTELUS
What is MTELUS's capacity?
Up to 2,350. It is at 59 rue Sainte-Catherine Est, in the thick of Montreal's Quartier des Spectacles.
Is MTELUS the same as Metropolis?
Same room, new sign. It ran as Métropolis from 1987 until May 2017, when a Telus Mobility partnership renamed it MTELUS. Plenty of Montrealers still call it Metropolis.
