Work on dismantling the current roof at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal has reached an advanced stage, with assembly of the new roof set to begin in 2026 and installation in 2027. This is the third roof for the stadium since its opening in 1976, with the previous installations facing issues such as tearing and partial collapses.
In 2026, work to build the new roof will start at the ground level of the stadium where it will be assembled and raised in 2027.“We’re very happy of the work of almost 300 people who have contributed to the project so far,” Nadir Guenfoud, of the Olympic Park told Global News.This will be the third roof in the 48-year history of the Olympic Stadium . The previous two were plagued with problems, tearing and partially collapsing multiple times, including on Jan.
“There is no reason to think that Montreal cannot host these type of events if it has a proper stadium,” he said.
