The Paul Sauvé Arena was an indoor arena located in Montreal, Quebec, in its Rosemont district. Built in 1960 and demolished in 1996, the arena had a capacity of 4,000 people. It was named after Paul Sauvé (March 24, 1907 – January 2, 1960), a Quebec Premier with the Union Nationale. On a more prestigious note, it also hosted preliminary volleyball matches at the 1976 Summer Olympics. Before decay, costs and low attendances doomed the arena, it was used for curling hall, and later a bingo hall, a gymnasium, a bowling alley, and trade shows.
