Description

The festival takes place in September on the Université Laval campus. There are a total of two stages. Numerous artists from all over the world perform here. This musical event offers a wide variety of styles.

The official loading dock is located in the parking lot in front of Pavillon Desjardins, right next to Coop Roue-libre.

Guide and assistance dogs are allowed on the festival site. It's important to have the animal's certificate with you, as you may be asked to provide it.

Temporary kiosks (bar, boutique, restaurants) have variable accessibility depending on their configuration.
