A veritable constellation of stars is set to shine down on Montreal! Dedicated to the theme of love and celebrating the marriage of dance and music, this gala will bring the stars of some of the world’s most reputed companies together with Les Grands Ballets. Among them: the National Ballet of Canada, the Boston Ballet, the Cuban National Ballet, the Paris Opera and more! At the summit of their art, the dancers’ performances promise emotion, gallantry and grace. The evening will also pay tribute to Leonard Cohen, a great Montrealer who passed away November 2016 and sang of love like no one else could.

With Les Petits chanteurs du Mont-Royal.
