“Electronic music is huge in Québec and we are very pleased to present this unique event here,” says Martin Tremblay, Chief Operating Officer of Quebecor Sports and Entertainment Group. “It will be a great opportunity for fans of electronic music to come out and celebrate the end of winter together.”
“Igloofest is back in a big way for its 15th anniversary, and we’re celebrating the occasion by holding Igloofest in its original format in Québec City for the first time,” says Pascal Lefebvre, Cofounder and CEO of Multicolore. “We are animated by our creative collaborations and we are thrilled that they make it possible for us to kick off our Québec City edition with such a strong program. It will be three nights to remember for fans of winter, music and unconventional experiences.”
Electrifying program
Taking its cue from Igloofest Montréal, with its icy decor, striking architectural design, and line-up of the best local and international DJs, Igloofest Québec will bring out thousands of festivalgoers to warm up the night at the hottest event in Québec City this winter.
The abominable snow gang invites Igloosapiens to sway to the beat of the best electronic music: on Wednesday, March 16, Hattian-Canadian musician, producer and DJ KAYTRANADA, winner of two Grammy awards, will headline the festival’s first night after opening DJ sets from Lou Phelps and LOU FRE$H. On Friday, March 18, ROSSY and Deathpact will open for Zeds Dead, master of the remix and now melter of glaciers! On Saturday, March 19, the last night of the festival, Gardenstate and Sinca will warm up the winter warriors for famous trance band Above & Beyond, which has been at the cutting edge of electronic music for two decades. All shows are 18 and over.
