Gamer’s Music Guide: Osheaga Music and Arts Festival

Summer in Montreal means warm weather, 5 @ 7 on terrasses and of course, music! From street performers to festival season and the tam tams of Mount Royal, this city hosts great musical events. In this series, we explore the extensive lineup of artists visiting Montreal this summer and sniff out the ones that are featured in video games. You’ve heard the songs over and over again, now is your chance to hear them live.

Festival season is upon us! Osheaga takes over Parc Jean-Drapeau during the first weekend of August and features great musicians from all around the globe and of all genres.
