It is in this spirit of continuity that we have put several activities on the calendar from June 1st to June 30th, in compliance with the health regulations in effect. Among our guest artists: Martha Wainwright, Florence K., Cœur de pirate, Salebarbes, The Brooks, Veranda, Colin Moore and dozens of others! Adequate traffic control will of course be respected during the box office sales of all our shows, as well as during the indoor performances, which will take place in accordance with current regulations and in complete safety.
