Les Foufounes Électriques

Les Foufounes Électriques, commonly known as Foufs, is an alternative nightclub, bar, and concert venue located at 87 Saint Catherine Street East in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in the city's Quartier Latin. Opened in 1983, the venue became one of Montreal's best-known centres of underground music, punk subculture, goth subculture, alternative rock, and countercultural nightlife. The venue is frequently regarded as Montreal's oldest continuously operating alternative rock venue and one of the most significant institutions in Quebec underground culture. The venue's graffiti-covered walls, unconventional decor, live performances, and association with Montreal's punk and alternative scenes have contributed to its prominence in the city's independent nightlife and artistic counterculture scene.
