A stellar lineup of artists for every taste
The Fête du Lac des Nations presents an eclectic musical lineup to suit every taste.
There’s something for everyone: traditional Quebec music by Daniel Bélanger and Kaïn, pop performances by Marie-Mai and Alicia Moffet, upbeat rock tunes by Bleu Jeans Bleu, and an electrifying show by Roxane Bruneau. This diverse musical lineup also features hip-hop by Fredz and performances by artists such as Damien Robitaille, JF Pauzé, Émile Bilodeau, and Mélissa Bédard.
A revamped schedule for even more fun

The Grands Feux Audi Sherbrooke musical fireworks display will also light up the sky earlier this year, starting at 9:30 p.m., along with a drone show presented by Volkswagen De l’Estrie, illuminating Lac des Nations with hundreds of lights dancing over the water.
Festivities for the whole family
