Montreal International Auto Show, Annual automotive exhibition at Palais des congrès, Montreal, Canada
The Montreal International Auto Show is an annual automotive exhibition at Palais des congrès displaying vehicles from about 30 manufacturers worldwide. The show spreads across multiple levels and presents models from North America, Europe, and Asia side by side.
The show started in 1969 as an effort to boost vehicle sales in Montreal during the slower winter months. It has grown into a major annual event that positions the region as an important automotive marketplace.
The event connects French and English speaking communities through exhibitions of vehicles from North American, European, and Asian manufacturers.
You can visit during the multi-day event held in January, and comfortable shoes are recommended given the large exhibition space. It helps to allow extra time for browsing and comparing different manufacturers' offerings.
The Luc Poirier Collection section displays a curated group of rare and classic vehicles not found elsewhere in the city. These cars are selected for their engineering elegance and design innovation.
