Competing with Le Dag across the street is another wild, three-tiered entertainment tower. Chez Charlotte’s lounge is on the top floor, with the dance club Chez Maurice and smoking club Société Cigares below.
Frankie’s Cabaret Club

Monday night is the night at Frankie’s, as the live cabaret show combines with a feast of local smoked-meat dishes.
Grand Théâtre de Québec

The Grand Théâtre showcases the talents of l’Orchestre Symphonique de Québec, Opéra de Québec and an international line-up of musical stars (see Grand Théâtre de Québec, Québec City).
Le Dag

A large, popular three-storied club. A live band venue on the ground floor evolves upstairs into a more conventional disco. The action does not begin until after midnight. There’s also a cigar lounge.
Le Merlin

The perfect place for a night on the town. An inventive restaurant/bar is located upstairs, while downstairs there’s an Irish pub with a dance floor.
Le Vogue

This hip venue has a small dance floor packed with the upwardly-mobile and beautiful set.
Théâtre de la Bordée

Founded in 1976, this attractive theater stages a range of classical and contemporary performances from poetry to Shakespeare, with sets designed by luminaries such as Robert Lepage.
Théâtre Petit-Champlain

One of the best small theatres in North America for design, ambiance, repertoire and location. Evocative performances of music, song, dance and modern art.
