According to Eric Engels' information, the Montreal Canadiens have warned their season ticket holders that the Bell Centre will only be able to accommodate 7500 people this season, or 35% of its capacity. In addition, Montreal fans will be divided into sections of 500 people in the amphitheatre.

However, let's keep our heads up, there will be some revision during the season, if the sanitary measures in Quebec are not reduced. So, in the best case scenario, the Bell Centre will be able to accommodate many more spectators later in the season. Could we have a full house in the playoffs? Let's hope so!

Fans over 13 years old will need to have their VaxiCode QR code in hand, along with their two doses to be able to attend local games.

The Habs will also disappoint many season ticket holders. Season ticket holders will not be able to get tickets for all games, but they will be able to buy them in multiple game packages, considering the limited seats.
