Tiësto, Zedd, Loud Luxury to Headline Montreal Dance Music Festival îLESONIQ in 2024

Major acts including DJ Snake and celebrity spinner Idris Elba will play the two-day festival at Parc Jean-Drapeau on August 10-11 join the star-studded dance music festival in Montreal this August.

îLESONIQ bills itself as “Canada’s premiere dance music festival,” and the just-announced lineup for its 2024 edition is strong enough to validate that claim. The Bell-presented two-day festival takes place on three stages, August 10-11, 2024, at Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montreal, presenting a mix of some of the genre’s biggest names and up-and-comers.

The festival, which a press release says has its “DNA...steeped in EDM,” includes big names all weekend on the OASIS stage. Those include godfather Tiësto, DJ Snake, Canadian hit act Loud Luxury (they closed out the 2021 fest), Subtronics, Zedd, Timmy Trumpet, Audien and Jason Ross.
