Win Butler and Régine Chassagne’s band will perform on the first night of the festival, which runs from Friday July 29 to Sunday July 31.

The members of the Osheaga team have a thought for the loved ones of the Foo Fighters who are going through a difficult time, but they are delighted to be able to present a group that was formed in Montreal and is shining internationally.

“When the Foo Fighters unfortunately had to cancel their presence, it was crucial for us to schedule a group that had special meaning for our local music lovers, and that would attract a large number of fans from all over the world,” said by way. from Nick Farkas, Founder of Osheaga and Senior Vice President, Programming, Concerts and Events at evenko.

Arcade Fire performed in Osheaga in 2010 right after the release of their album The Suburbs. A memorable show for the festival-goers present.

Remember that Arcade Fire is launching its sixth opus WEMay 6.

The other two Osheaga headliners are A$AP Rocky and Dua Lipa.
