NOTE TO VISITORS

Given the rapidly changing health situation and in accordance with the directives of the City of Montreal and the Government of Québec, Espace pour la vie announces the temporary closure of its museums. The Biodôme, the Biosphère, the Jardin botanique greenhouses and the Planétarium Rio Tinto Alcan will remain close to the public for an indefinite period, while the Insectarium is already closed for work. The Jardin botanique's outdoor gardens will remain open in accordance with current health regulations.

Those who have purchased a ticket for either museum will be contacted and given the option of rescheduling their visit or receiving a refund.

Espace pour la vie will keep the public informed of the situation through its social networks.
