The Société des arts technologiques (SAT) isn’t just a venue—it’s Montréal’s nerve center for digital culture. Founded in 1996, this 44,000-square-foot hub bridges the worlds of art, technology, and immersive storytelling, bringing together creators, researchers, and audiences in a space where experimentation takes center stage. The crown jewel is the Satosphere, an 18-meter dome built for full-sensory, 360-degree audiovisual experiences that push the boundaries of performance and perception.
Elsewhere in the building, Metalab serves as a research playground for emerging technologies, Pavillon offers a laid-back wine bar for casual gatherings, and the SAT’s concert hall and artist residencies keep the pulse of Montréal’s digital arts scene alive. Whether it’s through training programs, live shows, or boundary-pushing immersive works, the SAT remains one of the city’s most forward-thinking cultural institutions—an incubator for the kind of creativity that thrives when art and technology collide.
