Fox Cabaret

Vancouver


One of North America’s last remaining porn cinemas has been transformed (and fully pressure-washed) into a brilliantly eclectic independent nightlife venue, ditching the dodgy flicks in favour of live bands, rib-tickling comedy and Saturday night dance fests with disco or ’90s themes. Check the online calendar; there's always something different on stage in this narrow, high-ceilinged venue.
