The 50th anniversary of Festival d’été de Québec features one of the more eclectic stomper line ups we’ve seen for 2017 so far, with a run of headliners including Kendrick Lamar, Death From Above 1979, Muse, P!nk and Gorillaz.
The Who will also perform at the festival this July, the iconic band’s only Canadian festival show, and the opening date of their farewell tour. Australia’s Flume is also a featured artist on the Festival d’été de Québec line up, while the stacked 11 day music program also features artists from Nick Jonas and The Backstreet Boys, through to Metallica and Lady Antebellum.
