Maxwell’s Concerts and Events - Waterloo, Ontario

Tiho Tadic

Fantastic, intimate venue to experience live music and feel close to your favourite musicians. I was pleasantly surprised by how much air circulated throughout the space pretty much the whole evening. There are two bars with fast service and absolutely acceptable drink prices.

Two things to note; if you're a smoker, you most probably won't be able to go in and out, but there is a small vestibule/balcony where smoking is permitted. Secondly, and this is super important, it's a 19+ venue, regardless of the event itself. We found it out the hard way, because two teenagers who wanted to see Cat Empire with us today had to be driven back home by their parents as a result. So keep that in mind.

Otherwise great location, will be back as soon as some other great band books the venue!

We saw the candlelight abba show and it was fantastic! So fun and affordable. It’s an hour long - the perfect little date night out!

My husband and I came here to see Saint Asonia and wow, what a treat! It was the best day of my life. We got front row and it was such an amazing experience. To see the band that close was something I’ll cherish for the rest of my life. I love the intimate feeling of it. I’m not much for concerts because I don’t like big crowds, but Maxwell’s offers something special!! If there’s a band you like playing here, you owe yourself the pleasure of going.

My girlfriend and I are from Long Island, NY and missed the Good Kid show in Brooklyn so we decided to do a day trip to Waterloo, Canada with our 2 friends who are visiting us from France to come to Maxwell's to see the show. The show was amazing! The venue was clean and everything went well. Thank you for an AMAZING show Good Kid!

Went for the first time to see a band in a bar setting since the pandemic. Love the layout (small stage room which opens into a bigger stage and bar), the band sounded great. The staff was friendly and I believe they sincerely enjoyed what they were doing. Looking forward to return for other concerts.

This was the most enjoyable concert I have attended. The Candlelight creates such a soothing atmosphere as the music wafts over you. I highy recommend these concerts!!! Such talented muscians.

Beautiful and relaxing event. It was perfect for our date night. We enjoyed the music as well as the musicians and atmosphere. I felt the tickets were a bit expensive for a show that was just an hour long. None the less it was enjoyable.
