Sting Returns to Montreal’s Théâtre St-Denis for the First Time in Almost 50 Years

The legendary musician first played the venue back in 1979 as the frontman of The Police.

Sting is set to have a full-circle moment in Montreal.

Following a series of sold-out shows across the globe, the Grammy-winning singer has announced a new fall leg of his “STING 3.0” tour across North America. He’ll play two shows at Vancouver’s Queen Elizabeth Theatre on Oct. 6 and 7, before heading to Montreal’s Théâtre St-Denis on Oct. 26 and 27.
