context_page_description: Marathon Oasis de Montréal is an annual marathon foot-race held in Montreal, Quebec, Canada in September. The Marathon de Montréal is the largest running event in Quebec. The race is sponsored by Oasis. Since 2012, the race has been controlled by Chinese conglomerate Dalian Wanda through its Rock 'n' Roll Marathon Series of marathons and half-marathons which are held around North America and in Europe.
context_section_description: According to tradition, the departure is from the Jacques-Cartier Bridge. The route of 42.195 km crosses different districts in Montreal through the Notre Dame Island and Saint Helen's Island on Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, the Old Montreal, the district Ville-Marie, Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie and Hochelaga-Maisonneuve.  Formerly, races finished in the Olympic Stadium, home of the 1976 Summer Olympics until the 2011 edition of the marathon when the finish line was moved to Parc Maisonneuve due to the growing number of participants. In 2012 and 2013, the finish line was in La Fontaine Park.
