| '''Centre Bell''' (English: The Bell Centre), formerly known as '''New Montreal Forum''', '''Le Centre Molson''' (Molson Centre), '''B-Centre''' and '''[B]''', is a multi-purpose indoor arena located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The arena opened in 1996 and was designed by LeMay & Associate, LLC. and LeMoyne Lapointe Magne architectural firms and is one of the few largest arenas designed by local firms in that time. The arena's capacity ranges between 2,000 and 22,114, depending on the event, making it the largest hockey arena in the world. It's the second of only two arenas to use an old-style siren to mark the end of periods during NHL hockey games. It's owned and operated by the Molson Family.
