the most popular event in town!

MONTREAL, June 7, 2011 /CNW Telbec/ - On Saturday, June 11 at 6 p.m., the most eagerly-awaited event of the season will take place at the Hôtel Le St-James, located at 355, St-Jacques Street in Montreal! In fact, this exclusive hotel, a favourite landing place of the international jet set, in conjunction with the legendary Scuderia Ferrari, will host an exclusive cocktail reception to mark the return of the Grand Prix du Canada à Montréal.  This is indeed a unique opportunity to experience the thrill of Formula 1 racing in the company of celebrity guests!

A most exclusive event
Following the outstanding success of last year's event, Elizabeth Glimenaki, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for the Hôtel Le St-James, didn't hesitate when it came to planning another stellar event. "The Hôtel Le St-James is thrilled to launch its summer activities in collaboration with Ferrari as part of the Grand Prix du Canada 2011. And with this second edition, we're hoping that this glamorous evening keeps its title as a not-to-be-missed event in the Montreal social calendar!" The evening holds many surprises, notably the world's first look at the all-new Ferrari FF V-12 Engine, which will be on display at the hotel entrance throughout the evening, as well as the opportunity to admire several top-of-the-line models from the celebrated Italian manufacturer. The crème de la crème of local and international personalities will be on hand to celebrate this incredible event to the sounds of Montréal's own Parc X jazz trio.

Gastronomy and Glamour!
Guests will have the exceptional opportunity to savour the innovative summer menu, created by none other than the acclaimed Chef Michele Mercuri of XO Le Restaurant. And since an evening of glamour isn't complete without champagne, a flute of Moët rosé will be offered to those in attendance. Cheers!
