Last chance to visit Canadiens Hall of Fame

  • The Canadiens organization announced Friday that they will be closing the Montreal Canadiens Hall of Fame on August 30, 2015. The change is being made as part of major  renovations at the Bell Centre.
  • “In the coming months, as the real estate development projects around the Bell Centre move forward, we will be in a position to proceed with a number of new initiatives, including the redeployment of Centennial Plaza. This beautiful new site will serve as a permanent gathering place for years to come that celebrates the history of our team, from its greatest legends to its unforgettable conquests and unparalleled legacy. The Hall of Fame will close in order to offer new amenities to fans and clients during games, though we will be redistributing certain of its displays and assets throughout the building so that they can continue to be enjoyed. For those who have never visited the Hall, we invite them through the end of the month to experience it at no cost.” — Kevin Gilmore, Executive Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer, Montreal Canadiens
