Four Seasons Hotel hosts Glamorous F1 Opening Night Party
On Thursday, June 6, numerous guests, dressed to impress, attended the 10th edition of the Official Opening Night of the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix. This year, the glamorous event, masterfully orchestrated by District Experience, was held at the newly-built Four Seasons Hotel Montreal.
Less than a month after its own opening, the luxurious Four Seasons Hotel hosted the exclusive “you’ll never guess”-themed party bearing the official Formula 1 seal. The event attracted a roster of high-profile guests, including current and past F1 drivers, and Montreal’s mayor, artists, business leaders and celebrities.
On the hotel’s third floor, guests were treated to a black-carpet arrival and then whisked away to the city’s hottest hangout — Marcus Lounge + Bar — where a champagne cocktail reception worthy of champions awaited them.
The party then moved up to the Palais des Possibles. A ballroom experience, designed by Madame Bombance, married Montreal’s madness with Paris’ glamour and New York’s eccentricity.
In this sumptuous and refined setting, the abundance of decadent food tempted and delighted the palate, while guests were entertained by unmatched artistic performances.
All senses were seduced during this effervescent evening, which perfectly set the tone for a fabulous Formula 1 weekend.
In addition, guests were able to join celebrity Chef Marcus Samuelsson at Marcus Restaurant with its expansive third-floor terrace.
Guests were also free to show up from morning to night for a drink or a bite and rub shoulders with both local Montrealers and global jet-setters.
The special Four Seasons Hotel programming for F1 festivities included live music and DJs, such as Mick, Nico de Andrea and Donald Lauture, throughout the weekend…
…an “all-women’s day” on Friday, June 7…
…and post-race cocktails at sunset on Sunday, June 8.
