Two dazzling icons, one unforgettable night of sequins, show-stopping songs and plenty of laughs.

Liberace and Liza Minnelli never actually shared a stage—but this sparkling tribute show imagines what might have happened if they had.

Presented by Go-Musique and Fun Nation, Liberace & Liza: A Tribute brings the two larger-than-life icons together for an evening of music, comedy and plenty of glitter in an iconic Downtown Montreal venue.

David Saffert takes on Liberace at the piano, while Jillian Snow channels Liza Minnelli, with the pair going head-to-head in a gloriously over-the-top musical showdown.

The show received 16 five-star reviews and was voted the second-best show among hundreds of productions at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

When is Liberace & Liza: A Tribute coming to Montreal?

Check out this next-level performance on Tuesday, November 24, 2026, at Caf’Conc’ in the heart of Downtown Montréal.

Note: Two performances only. Buy your tickets here.

Expect beloved classics including Cabaret, New York, New York and Over the Rainbow, alongside some decidedly unexpected covers from Lady Gaga and Britney Spears.

And the music is only half the fun. As Liberace and Liza battle for the spotlight, the laughs come thick and fast—with sequins to match.

The performing arts theatre located inside the Marriott Montréal Château Champlain (just steps from Time Out Market Montréal and the Montreal Eaton Centre) draws on the spirit of the classic European café-concert: an intimate mix of dining, music and entertainment.
