Description of Club Metropolis Montreal
Opened in 1884, the name was changed to Billy Moore's Lyceum in 1905. In 1920, Loew's took over and renovated and renamed it Loew's Court. In 1924, it is renamed back to Français. In 1960, the policy changed to French movies and the name was changed again in 1970 to Eros and began showing adult films. The theater closed in 1981 and reopened in 1986 as Club Metropolis (a nightclub).
Though its primary vocation remains as a concert venue, the Metropolis slips on its comfortable old shoes from time to time to transform itself back into a discotheque or a reception hall for launches, corporate events and all manner of meetings. Directly adjoining is a small hall, the Savoy, which can accommodate 167 persons. In a setting reminiscent of the cabaret era, with its profuse chandeliers and intimate atmosphere, the Savoy lends itself to any kind of event. A unique feel, and a unique venue!
