As playoff momentum builds around the Montreal Canadiens in the National Hockey League, KFC Canada is bringing a piece of hockey history back into the spotlight, installing original seats from the legendary Montreal Forum inside select restaurants across Greater Montreal to help channel the energy of the team’s most iconic championship era.
Not replicas. The real thing, said the company.
“In a bold move that blends superstition and culture, KFC is integrating a powerful symbol of the team’s legacy. Fans can now sit where history once lived, tapping into fandom that fueled generations of wins,” said the company.
Fans can find and sit in the “lucky seats” at five locations:
- 4086 rue Wellington, Montréal
- 1670 rue Saint-Denis, Montréal
- 3000 boul. St-Charles, Kirkland
- 850 ch. de Chambly, Longueuil
- 1689 boul.des Laurentides, Laval
“Like KFC, Hockey fans don’t do things halfway, especially in Montreal,” said Lauren Pottie, Senior Manager, Media & Partnerships, KFC Canada. “This city leans into superstition, shows up loudly every single game, and we are matching and celebrating its energy unapologetically.”
On Canadiens game day, KFC Canada said it is offering the Famous Chicken Sandwich for just $5.95, giving fans one more reason to show up, sit down, and lock into the moment.
Founded by Colonel Harland Sanders in 1952, KFC is the world’s most popular chain of chicken restaurants. Kentucky Fried Chicken Canada Company (KFC Canada) is a subsidiary of YUM! Brands, Inc. which operates more than 60,000 restaurants in more than 150 countries around the world. KFC Canada has more than 650 locations in Canada.
