CONFIRMED HEADLINERS

Montreal’s most exciting new festival, LASSO, will be happening, but fans will have to wait until next summer for the kick-off edition. A country music festival in one of the greatest cities in the world is very exciting, and LASSO is set to be ultimate celebration of a musical genre that reaches beyond geographical borders and across generations. Unfortunately, due to current circumstances with regards to Covid-19, the LASSO team has no choice but to postpone the long-awaited inaugural edition of the festival till next summer, August 13 & 14, 2021 as well as LASSO in the City which is now confirmed for August 12, 2021.
