Il Bazzali

Le Nestor — Festive Plaza St-Hubert neighborhood tavern with themed nights and occasional live music. The programming spans Rock, pop, acoustic, pub music, mixed, giving musicians a useful sense of what already works in the room. The best sets here will work with the room rather than over it, keeping enough energy to hold a social crowd without turning dinner or drinks into a volume contest.

Bain Mathieu is a former public bath converted into a professional independent arts and event venue with two performance rooms. The main room holds about 400 standing and the secondary room about 200, giving electronic, rock, pop and experimental artists real production scale. The all-ages cultural setting makes it flexible for concerts that need more than a bar footprint.
