by Jesse Locke

From July 7th-17th, the annual Festival d’été de Quebec (Quebec City Summer Festival) will see the capital’s downtown overtaken by 300 shows on 10 different stages. Line-ups for the FEQ have always stood out from others in Canada (2015 featured The Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters, Boston, Megadeth, Jack Ü, Keith Urban, Deep Purple, Doobie Brothers, The Tragically Hip, The Alan Parsons Project, Iggy Azalea, and Interpol, to name a few) and this year they’ve gone even further.

The 2016 Festival d’été offers a wildly mixed list of performers including the following:

Sting and Peter Gabriel, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rammstein, Duran Duran, Ice Cube, Rae Sremmurd, Fetty Wap, Freak Heat Waves, City and Colour, Kaskade, Brad Paisley, Sheryl Crow, Selena Gomez, The Lumineers, Neil Finn of Crowded House, Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music, Pokémon lover Cœur de Pirate, Hatebreed, Peter Bjorn and John, George Thorogood and the Destroyers, Flo Rida, The Cult, The Decemberists, The Tallest Man on Earth, We Are Wolves, and legitimately many more.

Something for everyone!
