Festival d'été de Québec (FEQ) is bringing Canadian pop royalty to the provincial capital this summer.

Shania Twain and Avril Lavigne will headline two nights at the 11-day festival in Quebec City. Other headliners include chart breakthrough Benson Boone, Irish singer-songwriter Hozier, thrash metal icons Slayer, and legacy superstar Rod Stewart.

Avril and Shania have both had busy years. Lavigne released her first greatest hits album, backed by a sold-out tour and played one of Glastonbury's most hyped sets last summer, while Twain has taken on TV duties, hosting the People's Choice Country Awards, joining the judges of Canada's Got Talent and appearing in Sabrina Carpenter's Christmas special. Both are hitting the road this summer, too, with Lavigne performing at All Your Friends Fest and Warped Tour and Twain headlining Ottawa Bluesfest.

FEQ's headliners are supported by a deep roster of talent, including Canadian pop singer Alessia Cara, pop-punk stars Simple Plan, jazz-funk iconoclast Thundercat, alt-rock innovators Pixies, dancehall star Sean Paul and breakout Bronx rapper Ice Spice.

FEQ is one of the country's biggest and longest-running music events. Over 50 years old, it has a huge stage capacity — Post Malone played to over 100,000 people last summer — programming international stars alongside Quebec heroes and rising Canadian acts.

One of few Canadian festivals to program 11 days, festival producers BLEUFEU also work hard to keep passes affordable, with a fully transferrable general admission pass priced at just $165 (about $13.63 per day). That's made it a destination event for music lovers across the province and beyond.

FEQ 2025 runs July 3-13. Check out the full lineup below. Passes are on sale now.

Rogers Stadium Implements New Changes to Address Issues Ahead of Second Concert Season in Toronto

The stadium located in the Downsview Park area has made several adjustments this year to enhance fan experience, accessibility and transportation to and from the site, including free rides home on the TTC.

Rogers Stadium is getting ready for another big summer.

Today (May 21), the venue announced that it is once again partnering with the TTC to offer free rides home from all concerts held at the stadium. The initiative is meant to encourage concertgoers to use public transit, which remains the most effective way to access the venue.
