Nightlife and entertainment in Montreal

Few cities in the world can boast a nightlife as vibrant and diverse as Montréal's. There's truly something for everyone in the clubs that line the streets of the city - from comedy to rock concerts, jazz bars to neighbourhood pubs, student-filled patios to raucous discos to after-hours clubs. Here the bars stay open to 3 am, with some staying open long enough to serve breakfast. It seems a new club opens its doors nightly. So be sure to pick up a free copy of the Mirror, ICI, Voir or the Hour. These free weekly papers will let you know what's happening in the city. In 1994 the local government gave in to popular demand and allowed the introduction of after hours clubs. Although a few clubs open before midnight, most don't open their doors until 2 am. As these clubs can't (legally) sell alcohol, the cover is usually quite expensive, around $20-25. Once inside, patrons dance the night away on massive dance floors, or chill out in small rooms listening to house and dance beats. Some, though not many, feature live jazz. The most popular after hours clubs are on the east and west ends of Ste-Catherine as well as boulevard St-Laurent, stay open until 10 am, and cater to an insomnia prone crowd from all walks of life.
