Review Summary

Reviews describe Le Monastère as a spectacular cabaret circus venue with a vivid, electric atmosphere and top tier talent from around the world, delivering breathtaking acrobatics and entertaining moments under impressive lighting. The space is repeatedly praised as beautiful and energetic, offering a close, immersive experience that many consider a season highlight in Montreal. Some notes acknowledge that earlier editions had more circus and less talk, and a few comment on occasional parts that feel more about humor than substance. Overall the experience blends laughter, wonder, and emotion with consistently high artistry, making it a must see for many, while a few critiques mention touristy vibes or added classes and service quirks that may not suit everyone. The recurring sentiment is that Le Monastère offers a bold, original, and unforgettable night out.

16 dollars for a shot, you gotta be kidding, this is obviously a tourist trap, the'salsa clases' without an instructor & terrasse with $16 + tax shots should be illegal
