Montreal played host to one of Canada’s most significant music and arts festivals last weekend. The 16th edition of OSHEAGA unfolded at Parc Jean-Drapeau from August 4th to 6th. Featuring over 90 artists across three days, the 2023 installment not only lived up to expectations but also set new records, solidifying its position as a premier music festival. Drawing in more than 155,000 passionate music enthusiasts from both domestic and international locations, this year’s OSHEAGA marked a record-breaking turnout.
The festival’s lineup was so enticing that the coveted OSHEAGA 3-day passes sold out an impressive 10 days prior to the event’s commencement. Daily tickets for Saturday and Sunday followed suit, sparking substantial online excitement (OSHEAGA kicks off with a bang as Canada’s most Googled festival) and building anticipation for a spectacular weekend. The festival-goers were treated to an array of amenities that added to the overall enjoyable experience.
The Festival Experience
Ideal festival weather often involves clear skies and abundant sunshine, and OSHEAGA did not disappoint. Throughout the weekend, attendees were blessed with blue skies and no rain, enhancing the overall ambiance of the event.
Renowned as one of Canada’s largest music festivals, OSHEAGA boasts six stages sprawling across a spacious waterfront property. The festival’s well-organized layout ensured ease of navigation between stages and various amenities. OSHEAGA is celebrated for its diverse range of musical genres showcased throughout the weekend. The 2023 edition was no exception, featuring an impressive lineup including RÜFÜS DU SOL, Billie Eilish, Kendrick Lamar, Lil Yachty, Fred again.., Kim Petras, Japanese Breakfast, and Central Cee.
For enthusiasts of electronic dance music (EDM), the Coca-Cola Island Stage was the place to be. Festival-goers were treated to performances from PAWSA, Kasablanca, Innellea, Ganja White Night, Nostalgix, Marten Hørger, Tinlicker, Dom Dolla, and Monolink, among others. Personally, standout sets from Marten Hørger and Dom Dolla on Sunday left a lasting impression.
In conclusion, OSHEAGA once again delivered an exceptional festival experience, with record-breaking attendance numbers serving as a testament to its success. To ensure a spot at the highly anticipated 2024 edition, early ticket purchases via the official website are recommended.
