Live Jazz at Zoe’s

Settle into an evening of live jazz in Zoe’s Lounge, where elegant surroundings, crafted cocktails and soulful sounds set the tone.

Every Wednesday, The Castle Collective, Fairmont Château Laurier’s signature jazz ensemble led by acclaimed keyboardist Nick Gummeson, brings a dynamic blend of classic jazz influences and contemporary flair to the heart of Ottawa’s Castle.

Gather over cocktails, find a seat by the music and experience one of Ottawa’s most iconic gathering places in a whole new rhythm.

Wednesdays, 6:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.  
Walk-ins are welcome; reservations are not required.

Come for the music,
stay for the evening.

Zoe's Lounge

Craft cocktails, and good company.

Step into a great room that feels like home, where you can sit back, indulge in the moment, and, as we like to say, don’t talk about the scandals… we drink to them.
