Know Before You Go

Why it matters

El Mocambo is a rebuilt two-room venue at the site of Toronto’s long-running Spadina music club. The main-floor room and upstairs room can host different shows and configurations on the same night.

Getting there

Take the 510 Spadina streetcar to College or Nassau, or walk west from Queen's Park station. The palm sign is easy to spot, but rideshare pickup on Spadina can be slow because of streetcar traffic.

Bag policy

Backpacks and large bags are not permitted. Smaller bags are searched, and a checked-bag arrangement may be available for some events but should not be assumed.

Local tips

Confirm the room on the ticket before arrival. The building has separate main-floor and upstairs performance spaces, and entry, bars and sightlines differ by room.
