Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Monte's Showbar Grill

245 Waverley Road

Dartmouth, Nova Scotia B2X 2C5

Monte’s is located in Dartmouth, just across the harbour from downtown Halifax—about a 10-minute drive depending on traffic.

• Parking: On-site parking lot available with free parking for patrons.
• Public Transit: Accessible by Halifax Transit bus routes—check local schedules for Waverley Road service.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Rideshare pickup and dropoff are available in the parking lot area.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 30–60 minutes before showtime. This gives you time to park, choose a table, and place your food and drink order before the music starts. Since tables closest to the stage are the most popular, early arrival is your best bet for top views.

Monte’s is an indoor venue, so weather won’t impact the performance. If you’re taking Halifax Transit, build in a little buffer for bus connections and schedule variations along Waverley Road. If you’re driving from Halifax, the hop across the harbour is quick—but give yourself extra time during peak hours.

The lot offers flat, minimal walking from your vehicle to the entrance. If you’re meeting a group, use the rideshare zone or the front entrance as an easy meetup point before you head inside to find seats together.

Venue Navigation

Monte’s features a straightforward layout: a stage for live music, a full-service bar, and a dining area with tables and some standing room. Most tables have clear sightlines to the stage, and high-tops and bar seating offer good views with quick access to service.

You’ll find classic bar-and-grill concessions—wings, burgers, and more—plus local beers on tap. Restrooms are easily accessible from the main floor. Merchandise details aren’t listed in the research; if a band brings their own merch, look for a small table near the stage or entrance. Comfortable footwear is a smart choice if you plan to stand close to the stage during the show.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Limited information available—policies may vary by event. Check venue guidelines before arriving; bags may be subject to search.
• Prohibited Items: Limited information available—outside food/drink, weapons, and illegal substances are generally not permitted.
• Re-entry Policy: No re-entry once you exit the venue.
• Service Animals: ADA-compliant service animals are welcome.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Arrive early for the best table selection near the stage.
• If you love a good deal, consider catching a Wednesday wing night for great food before the music starts.

Pre-Event Planning

Check the venue’s weekly schedule to pick the vibe you’re after—Open Jam with Dan Baird if you love spontaneous collaborations, or themed nights like Rockin’ the 90s for a singalong-ready setlist. Monte’s regularly showcases local and regional talent, so it’s an easy place to discover your next favorite band.

If you’re coming with a group, coordinate arrival and seating beforehand. Meeting at the entrance, then heading in together makes it easier to grab adjacent tables or a cluster of high-tops with a good stage view. With the full-service grill and local beers on tap, you can plan dinner-and-a-show without leaving the venue.

Traveling from Halifax? The drive across the harbour is quick—plan around 10 minutes, plus a buffer for traffic. If you’re using bus service on Waverley Road, check the latest Halifax Transit schedule to time your trip and get in before the headliner starts.

Accessibility

Accessibility details are limited in the research. The venue is ground level with flat access from the parking lot, which may simplify entry for many guests. If you have specific accessibility needs, we recommend confirming details ahead of time with the venue.

For assistance choosing accessible seating, contact Ticket Purchase for personalized support before purchasing.

Dining Options

Inside the venue, you’ll find a full-service grill menu with pub favorites—wings, burgers, and more—plus local beers on tap. Wednesday wing nights are a popular special, making it easy to enjoy a hearty meal before or during the show.

Order at your table or the bar, then settle in for the set. With food and drinks on-site, you won’t need to step out between acts.
