Avril Lavigne Takes the Stage at Festival d'été de Québec: Canadian Concerts of the Week

Plus, Canadian icon Shania Twain plays the Calgary Stampede, while Coldplay has four sold-out nights at Toronto’s new Rogers Stadium.

It’s not a long weekend in Canada like it is in the U.S. but across the country, there are many events to keep music fans busy — from an indie punk performance in Vancouver and a boots stomping concert in Calgary to a highly coveted tour at Toronto’s Rogers Stadium and one of Quebec’s biggest music festivals, FEQ.
