Coeur d’Ile Adventures continue to take place downtown! This large-scale project of the Quartier des spectacles and Montréal centre-ville Partnership in collaboration with Tourisme Montréal brings together 11 Oases designed by local designers, offering welcoming spaces to eat, relax or reconnect, while enjoying open-air wonders of the island!
Starting now, three new warm and friendly Oases are ready to welcome Montrealers in a safe way, in addition to the six open since the beginning of June. The last Oases will follow in the following weeks. Stay tuned!
OASIS | IN THE SHADOW OF THE COSMOS
At Square Victoria
Suspended from a simple structure made of steel pipes, a thousand petals come alive and twirl, making up a colorful landscape constantly renewed by the whims of the wind. Walking through the installation, the public finds themselves in an inverted universe where the sky is an enveloping field of flowers. A shadowy space that is open for passers-by and people who work in this essential place in the city center.
Alcohol consumption is permitted, but must be accompanied by a meal.

OASIS | SAINT-JAMES BEACH
In front of the Saint-James United Church
This summer, the beach comes to you! After long months of confinement, this Oasis invites you to live an exotic and relaxing experience in a furnished resort area, in the heart of the city center. Passers-by can stop there to enjoy the welcoming furnishings, shaded spaces, a seaside soundscape and an incomparable sensation of warm sand underfoot. A unique opportunity to get away from it all!
Alcohol consumption is permitted, but must be accompanied by a meal.
The musical atmosphere of this Oasis is by Radio-Canada OHdio.
