Pollstar has also named Montreal mega promoters Evenko the #1 promoter and the Bell Centre the #2 arena venue in Canada.

According to Pollstar, MTELUS (fka Metropolis) has been ranked as the #1 “club” showroom in Canada and #2 in the world in 2024. Evenko was also named #1 in Canada in the promoter category, while the Bell Centre ranks #2 and Place Bell is #5 in Pollstar’s list of arena rankings.

The Pollstar rankings of concert venues around the world are based on the number of tickets sold this year.

Metropolis first opened as a skating rink in 1884. The space later became a theatre, then a cinema, a porn movie theatre, a nightclub and, in 1997, a concert venue.
