Presented by General Motors in association with Alcan, the festival is the world's largest annual music event that showcases a variety of artists and musicians from around the world. This year, the affair is taking place June 28th to July 8th, and as usual, will have both outdoor and indoor shows, some free and some not.
With over 2500 guests of genres as diverse as jazz, blues, world, folk and electro, Montreal will be a veritable Mecca of music lovers come this summer, where both big name artists such as Bob Dylan, Harry Connick Jr. and Keith Jarrett will take the stage as well as up-and-coming locals such as Vic Vogel, Jean-Pierre Zanella and Yannick Rieu, among so many others.
The festival ends on a high note this year: a huge outdoor show at Parc Jean Drapeau featuring the likes of Manu Chao with Radio Bemba Sound System and friends!
Tickets can be bought via Ticketpro, Admission, and all venues where the concerts take place.
