There’s a new Montreal music festival joining the summer circuit. Palomosa is the latest creation from the minds behind Piknic Électronik and Igloofest. Making its debut this September, the two-day bash will span pop, rock, R&B, Latin, and EDM, featuring headliners who wowed crowds at Coachella this year.

Piknic Électronik is amping up for a summer-long celebration of its 20th anniversary and discount festival passes are set to go on sale this week. Montreal's signature Sunday party will mark the milestone with a move away from the iconic Calder statue on Île Sainte-Hélène and closer to its original site. From May 21 to October 1, you can catch Piknic DJs playing at Jardin Le Petit Prince, right outside the Jean-Drapeau metro.

After two years of uncertainty and ever-changing health measures, we are asking for a clear plan that outlines how activities will fully resume.
