Founded in Montreal in 1957 by Ludmilla Chiriaeff the Grands Ballets Canadien has since conquered everyone.

With shows like The Nutcracker presented every Christmas, it's become a tradition for montrealers to attend the ballet.

The Grands Ballets have a program with a wide variety of shows throughout the year, for example in october at La Place des Arts they will present Kaguyahime Princesse de la lune.
