Bachelorette Bliss

The back to back shows Friday night had us up on our feet, cheering and singing along. This is the perfect place for a bachelorette party whether or not you speak french. If you are in Montreal, don't let yourself miss a night here!

Entertaining and Refreshing!

We are the first to admit that we know next to zero French, so we went in expecting to not understand anything. It was a pleasant surprise when about half of the performances were in English, so we really got the best of both worlds....More

This is my second time there. This is a bar owned by the drag queen Mado. Located on St-Catherine in the gay village in Montreal. You pay a 15$ entrance fee at the door, and attend a show. Mado performs a bit but mostly is...More

Amateurish house although this drag house venue was built by Mado herself. I'm sure Mado tries to manage this place at the best of intentions however it is quite the opposite. The staff overall is rude and see the world within their own bubble and...More

The rainbow pillars of Beaudry Métro Station shepherd
the way into to The Village, one of the largest hubs
for gay and lesbian culture in North America. With an
open layout and a congenial aura, the refurbished
buildings along Rue Sainte-Catherine pay a special
homage to menswear and to caffeine, with showrooms and
cafes. By morning, the antiquing gems along Amherst
Street are packed with collectors. An incredible party
