Osheaga takes over Parc Jean-Drapeau, on Île Sainte-Hélène in Montreal, from July 31 to August 2, 2026. It's one of the largest outdoor music festivals in Canada and a fixture of the Montreal summer.
This year, the official lineup brings together 87 artists across several stages. The headliners are Twenty One Pilots on Friday July 31, Tate McRae on Saturday August 1, and Lorde on Sunday August 2, as confirmed by promoter evenko. The edition also marks the return of The xx, on stage for the first time since 2018. Local talent is well represented: 26 Canadian acts are on the bill, including 14 from Quebec.
Tickets. Single-day passes (Friday, Saturday, or Sunday) and three-day passes are on sale through evenko and Ticketmaster. Prices vary by pass type (general or VIP) — check the official box office for current rates before you buy.
Getting there. Parc Jean-Drapeau is on an island: the easiest option is the metro, Jean-Drapeau station (yellow line), a few minutes from the site. The park advises against driving, as parking is very limited on festival days.
Good to know for newcomers. Osheaga is a good first outing to get a feel for the local music scene without necessarily spending a fortune: the single-day option is more affordable than a three-day pass, and the open-air site plays out under the peak-summer sun — bring water, sunscreen, and good shoes. The detailed stage-by-stage, hour-by-hour schedule is posted on the official site in the days leading up to the event.
