Le New City Gas raconte une histoire qui s’écrit depuis 1847. À l'époque, la New City Gas Company of Montreal utilisait le site pour transformer le charbon en gaz afin d'éclairer les rues de la métropole.
Globalement, les avis présentent New City Gas comme une destination nocturne à l’impact fort: son et lumière de premier ordre, ambiance électrique et énergie de foule remarquable, avec des productions et des DJ de qualité qui font souvent sensation. Cependant, la fréquentation peut être très élevée et le lieu peut devenir surpeuplé, le contrôle de foule n’est pas toujours suffisant et les files au vestiaire ou à la sortie peuvent être longues. Le personnel est majoritairement perçu comme professionnel et accueillant, et le vestiaire ainsi que la sécurité obtiennent des retours positifs, surtout lors des soirées très demandées où le billet VIP est recommandé pour plus de confort. Le coût des boissons est souvent jugé élevé et l’organisation peut varier selon les soirées, surtout quand c’est sold out. Malgré cela, l’endroit est loué pour son agencement à plusieurs niveaux, son espace de danse généreux et sa capacité à accueillir des soirées thématiques ou des concerts intenses. En somme, New City Gas est une référence du nightlife montréalais, offrant des expériences spectaculaires tout en appelant à une meilleure gestion des flux lors des gros événements.
I went there for the New Year's Eve event, & they clearly oversold it. The place was extremely crowded - I couldn't move or even dance. People were constantly squeezing past us. I eventually started feeling claustrophobic, had a panic attack, & had to leave.
When we went to get our coats, the crowd was so intense that I couldn't even reach the coat check or breathe properly. We decided to come back the next day to pick them up.
However, when we returned, the place was closed for the next two weeks. Their opening hours here were not updated, so we went there twice only to realize they were closed.
After two weeks, I finally went back with our coat check tickets & initials. They were only able to find one of our coats. They told me they would call me about the other one - but no one ever did. I called multiple times & sent emails, & no one responded. No one even apologized for losing my coat.
What is the point of paying for coat check if they're going to lose it? How was my coat given to someone else if they didn't have the ticket for it?
I'm extremely disappointed & will never go back.

We went here last weekend for a show & it was a good experience. The audio quality is good, drinks are nice & the atmosphere is lively. Sometimes it gets too crowded but I can't complain. That means it is a popular place. Always down for some late night fun.
Unreal experience at New City Gas! The production, sound system, & lighting are next level, & the atmosphere is unmatched. The crowd energy is amazing, & the venue is well organized despite how busy it gets.
Staff & security are professional, & everything runs smoothly. One of the best electronic music venues I've been to in Montreal, highly recommend!
One of my favourite venues for music events! The washroom stalls are nothing special, but there's a common fountain for everyone to wash their hands. It's really cool. It has 2 levels. The bottom level is like a lounge; it is not intimate. The top level is like a warehouse; high ceilings & more of space to dance. Only downside about this space is that it gets really crowded at sold out shows; this could also be because that oversell some shows. They need better crowd control.

Too crowded. It turns the crowd very pushy since everyone's walking over each other. Even in metal shows I don't get pushed around THAT much. 70% of that capacity would be 5/5
The place was super duper crowded. You can barely dance. The club is huge & has fancy lights. Good crowd though. The staff is friendly. I would say pick & choose your DJ. We went with Camel Phat & was 3/5. Have seen much better lightening & sounds than this but it is worth a visit if you love partying. Drinks are $$$.

Got to experience Crankdat performing on the first 360? stage at the venue, absolutely perfect stage setup for the venue. visuals were awesome, sold out show but still had room in the crowd, bar prices were decent & was not over heating. Enjoyed my first time going to NCG & it definitely won't be my last!
Went to see Adventure Club & also the New Year Markus Schulz show. The venue is cool, the sound is decent, the staff was all professional. A few notes: Some of the bartenders do not know English well, I ordered a Gin Soda, & was given a Grey Goose Soda with lemon juice (costs $3 more than what I wanted). Not a big deal, but it was annoying. The New Years event was extremely crowded, you could not move at all, packed full of people, it would have been better if there was less people. Giving it 4/5 cause the overcrowded New Years event was disappointing, otherwise the Adventure Club event was a 5/5.
Went there for a Meduza show & was pleasantly surprised. Very unique setup with multiple floors of different music styles & main floor hosting headliners. Quite well managed & servers & bouncers were respectful. & most importantly crowd was great. Highly recommend.
Honestly, great venue, terrible staff- super rude. Depending on the Dj depends on the crowd. I've had a great night here & I've walked out the door after one drink. Proceed with caution on the event. But a beautiful space!
