What steps have you taken to resolve this already?

None

Anything else?

The Jupyterlab flavor of the demo also fails

I just encountered this same problem after installing qgrid. Seems to be a compatibility issue, looks like MultiIndex has moved in Pandas - hence this error. Looking at qgrid/grid.py it seems like this problem is fixed in qgrid v1.3.0. For me PyCharm installed the older 1.1.1 version. I fixed the issue for myself by installing a new version from pip.

I had the same problem and 0Hughman0's fix worked for me too.
