Flag for review
Originally bought as a nightclub space in 1940, the name and famous sign were erected in 1946. Its Spanish theme—the name means “road house”—was originally designed to attract tourists visiting post-War Toronto. It was one of the first nightclubs in the city to obtain a liquor license in the otherwise dry Toronto. Musical acts appeared on separate stages located on the main and second floor of the building.
In recent years both floors of the El Mocambo have been renovated and now book a wide range of musical acts, including jazz and hip hop as well as many indie acts and other events. As a consequence, the club’s status as an important Toronto musical hotspot has been at least partially restored.
