# 5-Star Google Review for The Comedy Nest

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

**Fantastic comedy experience in a piece of Montreal history!**

Had an absolutely wonderful night at The Comedy Nest! The show was outstanding from start to finish. The MC was incredible - really knew how to work the crowd & kept the energy high throughout the evening.

The headliner, DJ Demers, was fantastic. Even after what seemed like a challenging travel day (which he brilliantly wove into his material), he delivered an amazing set. All the comedians brought something unique to the stage, but the headliner was definitely the standout of the night.

A note about the location - yes, The Comedy Nest is situated in The Montreal Forum, the legendary former sports arena that's now been transformed into a shopping & entertainment complex. The comedians themselves joke about it feeling like a'crappy mall,' & sure, there's an arcade next door, but there's real history here! You can still see elements like the center ice circle & original red seats that remind you this was once home to the Montreal Canadiens.

Here's the thing though - once you step inside The Comedy Nest, you completely forget about everything outside those doors. The venue itself creates the perfect intimate atmosphere for comedy, & the quality of the performances is top-notch.

Don't let the unconventional location fool you - this is a gem of a comedy club with fantastic shows. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great laughs in Montreal!
