Montreal’s Summer Glow-Up
From August 1–3, Parc Jean-Drapeau wasn’t just a park, it was the main character. Osheaga 2025 rolled in with enough vibes to power your entire summer playlist, turning the city into a three-day paradise of beats, skyline views, and “you had to be there” moments. The crowd? A casual 142,000 stans. Saturday? Sold out faster than your fave’s limited-edition vinyl.
Day 1: Killer Openings (Literally)
Friday had nostalgia dripping from every chord. The Killers closed the night, and if you didn’t scream-sing “Mr. Brightside” like your teenage diary depended on it, you were lying. Glass Animals followed with cosmic visuals, neon lights, and enough planetary energy to make NASA jealous. Dave Bayley shouting “Osheaga!” was the serotonin boost none of us knew we needed.
Day 2: Tyler Takes Over
Saturday was pure chaos in the best way. Tyler, the Creator turned the stage into his own technicolor playground, with CHROMAKOPIA tracks that hit harder live than your morning cold brew. The crowd was feral (affectionately), and honestly, the mosh pit was a whole personality.
Day 3: Sad Girl Summer Meets Festival Highs
Olivia Rodrigo closed Sunday with a set that felt like your diary’s most dramatic chapter but in IMAX. Every ballad turned into a communal therapy session. People were crying, hugging strangers, and yes, filming every single second for TikTok.
Breakout Moments You Had to See
While the headliners owned the big stages, Doechii came for necks with a performance that screamed “I’m the main event.” Meanwhile, acts like Gracie Abrams, Lucy Dacus, Jamie xx, and Dominic Fike kept the vibes flipping from intimate to electric. And let’s not forget the 21 Canadian acts repping the home turf, with 12 from Québec alone, including EKKSTACY and The Beaches, proving the local scene can hold its own against the big imports.
Final Word: No Cap, This Was Iconic
Osheaga 2025 wasn’t just a music festival, it was a three-day serotonin overdose. Whether you were front-row screaming or vibing on the grass with overpriced lemonade, you left with at least one new favorite artist and a serious post-festival glow.
So, who’s already setting alarms for Osheaga 2026 ticket drops?
