Gamer Dating in Montreal

Montreal is one of the world's great games cities. Ubisoft Montreal, where the Assassin's Creed series began, is one of the largest studios anywhere, and dozens of others have followed. A great many people here make games for a living, and many more play them. Gamer dating in Montreal means you may well meet someone whose name is in the credits.

Our Montreal members are older than most: 25 to 34 and 35 to 44 are about equal at just over a third each, and only a small share are under 25. It is a crowd of people with careers, many of them in tech and games.

Where Montreal gamers meet

Montreal Comiccon runs every summer at the Palais des congrès. The Plateau and Mile End have board game cafés and bars with games on the shelves, and the city's studios and universities run game jams and industry meet-ups. The city is bilingual, so both French and English profiles are common; say which you prefer.

Date ideas in Montreal

A walk up Mount Royal for the view, a board game café on the Plateau, or an evening in the Old Port. In winter, the underground city keeps you warm between stops, and the Biodôme and Planetarium make a good afternoon.

A Montreal tip

If you work in games, it is fine to say so on your profile, but lead with what you play rather than where you work. People here are used to studio talk and like to hear about the person.

Around Montreal

Members live on the Plateau, in Mile End, Rosemont, Verdun, Saint-Henri and NDG, and off the island in Laval and Longueuil. The metro and the new REM light rail make the island easy to cross, and Quebec City and Ottawa are both a couple of hours away for a weekend trip.

Our Montreal members are older than most: 25 to 34 and 35 to 44 each make up just over a third, and very few are under 25.

Four real seasons

Montreal's winters are cold enough that the city builds a whole indoor network to avoid them, and its summers are packed with festivals. Dates here can follow the seasons: a board game café or an afternoon at the Grande Bibliothèque in January, the jazz festival, Just for Laughs or a picnic on Mount Royal in July. If you play the games made in this city, saying which ones is a good opener, since there is a fair chance your match knows someone who worked on them.
