• Entertainment in Quebec

Whether you want somewhere for a quiet drink or a crazy party, you’ll find that there are plenty of great nightspots all over Quebec.

Many of these can be found along Grande-Allée Est close to the Parliament Building. You’ll also come across plenty of great bars, including the hugely popular Le Sacrilège, on the stretch of rue St-Jean outside the old city walls.

For something a little farther afield, make the short trip to the Quartier Saint Roch, a cool neighbourhood with lots of up-and-coming bars and clubs.
