Title: All-New Apple Store Now Open in Downtown Montréal Post by: HCK on January 20, 2026, 04:05:05 pm All-New Apple Store Now Open in Downtown Montréal
Apple's Sainte-Catherine store (https://www.apple.com/ca/retail/saintecatherine/) in Montréal, Canada has a new home at the northeast corner of Rue Sainte-Catherine and Rue de la Montagne. The location officially opened to the public today (https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2026/01/the-new-apple-sainte-catherine-opens-today-in-montreal/), and the first people who visited received a complimentary tote bag and toque (the Canadian term for what Americans call a beanie), the latter of which will come in handy given Montréal's temperature is currently hovering around -15ºC (5ºF). (https://images.macrumors.com/article-new/2026/01/New-Apple-Store-Sainte-Catherine-2026.jpg) The store spans the first floor of a historic building that was extensively renovated for Apple (https://retail-insider.com/retail-insider/2026/01/apple-opens-new-sainte-catherine-store-in-downtown-montreal/). The second and third floors are not accessible to customers. The new space is more than double the size of Apple's original location on Rue Saint-Catherine, which is now permanently closed. There are side-by-side counters for the Genius Bar and Apple Pickup, where customers can receive technical support and collect items they ordered through Apple's online store, respectively. <div class="center-wrap">(https://images.macrumors.com/article-new/2026/01/Apple-Sainte-Catherine-Tote-Bag.jpeg)Photo Credit: Tomy (https://x.com/catomy0/status/2012225415029342693)</div> The interior design of the store is familiar, but there are a few unique elements, including the entrance and a curved wood ceiling. Apple says the store's façade blends historic Saint-Marc stone from Québec with local granite, while local copper artisans extensively restored the cornice that tops the building. To celebrate the store, Apple shared a custom Mac and iPhone wallpaper on its website (https://www.apple.com/ca/retail/saintecatherine/). At the store, customers who make a purchase can receive a complimentary Apple Store shopping bag with an illustration by Montréal-based artist Catherine Potvin this Saturday, January 17, between 1:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. local time. Apple's retail chief Deirdre O'Brien attended the grand opening.<div class="linkback">Tag: Apple Store (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/apple-store/)</div> This article, "All-New Apple Store Now Open in Downtown Montréal (https://www.macrumors.com/2026/01/16/new-apple-store-montreal-now-open/)" first appeared on MacRumors.com (https://www.macrumors.com) Discuss this article (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/all-new-apple-store-now-open-in-downtown-montréal.2476156/) in our forums Source: All-New Apple Store Now Open in Downtown Montréal (https://www.macrumors.com/2026/01/16/new-apple-store-montreal-now-open/) |
