The Montreal Grand Prix: a Quebec institution

Every June, the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve on Notre-Dame Island transforms into the global motorsport epicenter. Hundreds of thousands of spectators from around the world converge on Montreal to experience one of the most beloved Grands Prix on the calendar. Unique atmosphere, champions’ wall, tense final chicane: Montreal is an absolute must on the F1 calendar.

Prepare your race weekend coffee ritual

Friday practice: start with a simple but quality espresso to stay alert during technical analyses. Saturday qualifying: a long filter coffee for the morning, a double espresso for qualifying. Race Sunday: a good coffee prepared at home with your Carrera Café beans from Quebec City, a ritual that grounds your excitement in something familiar and comforting.

From Quebec City to Montreal for the Grand Prix

Many Carrera Café fans in Quebec City travel to the Montreal Grand Prix. We advise them to bring their favorite beans and a small travel grinder so they don’t end up without quality coffee at their hotel. Hotel coffee, we know it: not really up to the standard of an F1 weekend.

For those staying in Quebec City, no worries: our coffees let you experience a viewing worthy of a paddock. Every espresso, every filter, every cold brew can turn your living room into race day headquarters.
