About Osheaga Music and Arts Festival

Osheaga Music and Arts Festival is an annual multi-day outdoor event held every summer at Parc Jean-Drapeau on Île Sainte-Hélène in Montreal, Quebec — the site of the legendary Expo 67 World's Fair, set along the Saint Lawrence River. Founded in 2006 by Nick Farkas — then a concert buyer for Gillett Entertainment Group, later vice-president at Canadian promoter Evenko — the inaugural festival took place over Labour Day weekend, September 2–3, 2006, drawing approximately 25,000 attendees. The festival's name derives from the Mohawk term "O she ha ga," meaning "people of the shaking hands," referencing a historical encounter between Jacques Cartier and Indigenous peoples near the Lachine Rapids in 1535. From its origins as a two-day indie showcase, Osheaga rapidly grew into Canada's largest music and arts festival, attracting over 140,000 fans annually from North America and Europe across six outdoor stages — including the River, Mountain, and Green stages — presenting approximately 100 acts spanning indie rock, pop, hip-hop, and electronica. Past headliners include Coldplay, Eminem, Arcade Fire, Florence + the Machine, Kendrick Lamar, Foo Fighters, Dua Lipa, and Green Day. The festival has spawned two companion events — Heavy Montreal (metal) and IleSoniq (EDM) — and the 2026 edition takes place July 31–August 2.
