Cartier Theatre

A new event venue signed the Carosielli Group

Montreal has a rich history replete with heritage buildings and we take great pride in contributing to their restoration and giving them a second life.

Our love for architecture, heritage properties and history continues to grow with the addition of the Cartier Theatre to our group of unique venues.

Located at 2330 rue Sainte-Catherine Est and named the Cartier Theatre for its proximity to the Jacques Cartier Bridge, the former St Vincent de Paul church was meticulously restored and transformed into a spectacular event space.

Similar to the Rialto Theatre & St-James Theatre, the Cartier Theatre is now dedicated to hosting a variety of events, including galas, fundraisers, live concerts & shows, weddings, corporate events, film shoots, recognition events, conferences and more.

A WORD FROM THE OWNERS

“We have been extremely fortunate to be involved with the Rialto and St-James Theatres. It is a unique privilege and an immense pleasure to preserve and care for these historic buildings. We take great pride in sharing them with our community and allowing unfettered access through tours, concerts and a variety of events.

We believe in preserving heritage properties and transforming them into unique event spaces. This business model has proven effective and is greatly appreciated and encouraged by our community. We are most thankful! In light of this response, we are delighted to add new venues.

Built in 1928 by well-known architect Ludger Lemieux on foundations dating back to ‪1875, the St Vincent-de-Paul church towers at the corner of rue Sainte-Catherine E and Fullum in the Centre-Sud neighbourhood. Although the building has been neglected in recent years and notwithstanding the challenge to restore and rehabilitate it, we embrace our new adventure with great eagerness. In honour of its proximity to the Jacques Cartier Bridge, we have named it the Cartier Theatre.

We will restore and preserve this magnificent building. We will introduce architectural lighting to showcase its beauty and splendour. We will open it up to the community so that it will become a focal point for cultural and social activities. It will be a tedious and lengthy process, but with the continued support of the Montreal community, we are up to the challenge.”
