Pop Montreal

POP Montreal returns this fall. The legends are coming back, along with the weirdos, the influencers, the icons and the groundbreakers.

MAN IT IS HOT. SUMMER IS SOOOOOO HOT. We can't wait for the cool breeze of September. We can't wait for POP. Here are some more flashy names to add to the list of super high calibre artists playing the festival.We are very happy to announce that the special David Byrne & St. Vincent tour will be coming to Montreal September 21st, as part of the festival. The artists will be releasing their first collaborative album on September 11 entitled Love This Giant, to be released worldwide by 4AD under exclusive license from Byrne’s label Todo Mundo.

We're in Montreal. Lots of banging on casseroles and getting naked! Life is certainly crazy, but our festival is HAPPENING this year, from September 19th to the 23rd. POP Montreal Festival is Serious, it's a totally curated affair, that will entertain, enliven and educate the hip and the needy. Get ready for a lot of mind blowing vibrations.

We are happy to announce a very special BIG SHOW we have planned for the 10th anniversary of the POP Montreal festival. SiriusXM Canada will present and broadcast a free outdoor show by The Arcade Fire on Thursday, September 22nd, at the place des Festivals of Quartier des Spectacles in downtown Montreal.

These newcomers to the 2009 edition of the POP Montreal International Music Festival will join some of the best headliners that Pop world has to offer. Some of them are our heroes, some are iconoclasts, some we have been planning for years, and all are simply excellent and praiseworthy.
