Quartier DIX30 is a commercial lifestyle centre located in Brossard, Quebec. It is considered Canada's first lifestyle centre and occupies an area of 2,746,063 sq ft (255,117.6 m2) in the L section of Brossard. Quartier DIX30 was designed to emulate an urban or downtown shopping experience with boutiques and to meet the needs of suburban dwellers living on the South Shore of Montreal. Its name (English: TEN30 District) refers to its location: at the west corner of the intersection between Autoroute 10 and Autoroute 30.

According to a RioCan press release, "Quartier DIX30 was originally planned in three phases. [...] Phase III goes beyond the initial agreement and comprises approximately 36 acres (15 ha) of adjacent land."

Following a press conference on September 14, 2006, the 150-million Canadian dollar phase I of Quartier DIX30 was opened to the public by the developer (Devimco Real Estate Development Firm|Devimco) and the majority owner (RioCan). This initial phase included the opening of 400,000 square feet (40,000 m2) of retail space and of a total of 78 boutiques and restaurants including, among many other national retailers.

Another 40 retailers were opened like major foreign fashion boutiques, electronic stores and restaurant franchises. Furthermore, free underground parking was opened with access ramps along des Lumières Avenue.

The Germain Group built a boutique-hotel: ALT Hotel, a cheap-chic concept designed by LEMAYMICHAUD Architecture Design that "offers the qualities sought by a growing range of consumers who want affordable accommodation without compromising on design and comfort." The hotel was built alongside the brand new entertainment complex which includes a 900-seat live theatre and concert hall, spa and gym.

Furthermore, a Bureau en Gros supplies store, a Safari Pet Centre (the largest in Quebec), a Canadian Tire retailer, a RONA hardware and home improvement store and a large Wal-Mart store have been built on lots in the vicinity of the hotel.
