Nightlife in Montreal: Clubs, Live Music & What's On

520 events on sale across 33 Montreal venues — where the nights are, what the city plays, which night is busiest and what entry costs.

This guide is built from the live listings in our index — 520 upcoming events across 33 venues in Montreal. It rebuilds automatically as new dates go on sale, so the venues, genres and prices below reflect what is actually bookable rather than a snapshot from a year ago.

What's on in Montreal

We're currently tracking 520 events in Montreal, of which 137 are club nights, DJ sets or late shows. Between them they feature 464 listed acts, with dates on sale as far out as Sat, Aug 14, 2027.

Where the nights happen

These are the Montreal rooms with the most on right now. The count is upcoming events we have listed, which is a decent proxy for how hard a venue is working — not a ranking of how good it is.

What Montreal plays

Across everything on sale, the most common billings are Pop (149), Rock (121), Comedy (85), Electro Pop (47), Alternative Rock (41) and Dance/Electronic (37). Each links through to every date in that genre.

Which night to go out

Friday and Saturday are neck and neck as the busiest nights in Montreal — 133 of the 520 dated events we list fall on a Friday, about 26% against 124. Midweek is thinner, which usually means shorter queues and cheaper entry rather than nothing happening.

  • Monday — 39 events
  • Tuesday — 55 events
  • Wednesday — 44 events
  • Thursday — 69 events
  • Friday — 133 events
  • Saturday — 124 events
  • Sunday — 56 events

What a night out costs

Typical entry runs about C$13.61, with most tickets between C$13.61 and C$58.75. Those figures come from the sellers' own price ranges and move with demand — a lot of listings use dynamic pricing, so treat them as a guide and check the ticket page for the live number.

Planning the night

  • Start times below are the venue's own local time, not yours — worth checking if you're travelling in.
  • Age policy, door times and ID requirements are set by the venue and aren't in our feed. The seller's event page carries them.
  • Line-ups change. For multi-act bills, the running order is usually announced close to the date.
  • What's on tonight in Montreal and this weekend are the fastest ways in if you're deciding now.
