New City Gas Montreal

New City Gas is at 950 Ottawa St. The venue uses its massive, industrial shell for EDM, dance, and techno sets rather than hiding the structure behind softer decor.

The room runs smart and elegant, a contrast to the building's gritty history and a departure from the smaller electronic music haunts closer to Sainte-Catherine Street. The acoustics are engineered for volume, making it the choice for those who prefer dance music with a side of high-ceilinged scale rather than the claustrophobia of a basement club. It is a twenty-minute walk from the Old Port of Montreal, creating a distinct pull for crowds who want the spectacle of a large-scale production over the traditional pub-focused rhythm of the waterfront.
