What to expect from Brandon’s nightlife scene

It’s not difficult to find great hot spots to enjoy an adult bevvie or experience some live music in Brandon . . .

Here’s just a few great spots to enjoy some time with friends after hours…

Chez Angela Bakery & Café

By now, the majority of Brandonites have a pretty good idea what this from-scratch, local-first bakery and café has to offer and it’s not just their delicious pastries. This neat downtown spot consistently has great live music events basically every week.

Section 6 Brewing

Ever since this microbrewery opened up in this city, it’s been rockin’ with hosting events, karaoke, singles mixers and much more. They’ve also partnered with the local arts community and have some really cool art pieces on their walls to check out as well.

The 40

An oldie but a goodie is The 40 in Brandon. They like to consider themselves Brandon’s best nightclub – and that’s certainly up for debate but you can’t go wrong here. Good times, great food and some of the very best local, national and international talent on stage on weekends.

Lady of the Lake

From open mic nights to some fantastic talents performing live, you should probably make your way to the Lady. Here’s a glimpse into what you’re missing. (Kendra Kay performed at the Lady on March 9. Hopefully she makes her way back there! What a voice!)

Black Wheat Brewing

From the Empire Ale to the Blue Hills Brew, there’s a ton of awesome brew options for folks to try at Black Wheat! Neat fact: The Empire Ale was named in honour of the last surviving brewery in Brandon, which closed back in 1931. 

Of course, we’re missing some places! We can’t list them all here. You can find a full listing of Brandon’s hot spots, neat restos and pubs by clicking on our nightlife + live music section (under ‘See’ tab) and via the Dine tab at the top of the page!
