We are deeply touched by the industry’s recognition of this avant-garde architectural project,” says Jean Pelland and Martin Leblanc, Architects, Senior Partners, Sid Lee Architecture. “Congratulations to Sid Lee Architecture’s team and thank you to our client Ivanhoe Cambridge, and our precious collaborators C2 Montréal, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, and Pomerleau.”

ESPACE C2

Espace C2 is the prototype conference centre crowning the Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth hotel in Montreal – the centrepiece of the hotel’s business campus and a Montreal landmark in the making. Elevated above the hotel’s rooftop, Espace C2 is an iconic structure that pays tribute to the city’s creativity and potential.

 

The space, which offers breathtaking views of McGill College Avenue and the Montreal skyline, is poised to become a hub for the sharing and advancement of knowledge and ideas. The venue has a total surface area of 13,000 square feet and accommodates up to 220 guests. Inspired by C2 Montreal’s ethos and methodologies, Espace C2 is designed as an experiential venue for conference hosting, enhancing business creativity, networking and collaboration. Whether the venue is booked for client entertainment, team building or a leadership retreat, it can be configured based on a tried-and-true experience catalogue. The high-tech event space and its many possible configurations never fail to impress guests. The modular and visually striking Espace C2 inspires event participants to be bold, take risks and leave their comfort zone.
