College Street, 750 College St

El Convento Rico

El Convento Rico, the Latin drag and dance institution at 750 College St, closed on October 1, 2026 after decades as one of Toronto's most loved late-night rooms and a landmark of queer and Latin nightlife on College Street. It was a place where a drag show, a salsa floor and a birthday party happened at the same time, and its closure was covered widely. The College Street Latin crowd now has Nest at 423 College St for reggaeton and baile funk nights; the drag and queer programming has moved to a rotating set of events listed on Yohomo. We keep this page so the address is not mistaken for an open club.

Closed since Oct 2026.Closed October 1, 2026.
