From November 7th to 27th : Closing of Place-d'Armes Metro Station
The UN Conference on Biodiversity, or COP15, next December in Montreal, will transform the Palais des congrès area in the heart of downtown, into an international zone. For this reason, the Place-d'Armes metro station will be closed during this period. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause when coming to the Basilica.
