Press release Igloofest Québec : Bigger and wilder than ever
March 6–8, 2025 — Presented by Loto-Québec in collaboration with Videotron
After electrifying crowds in Montréal and Gatineau, Igloofest will take the Monstre tour to Québec City on March 6 to 8, 2025. For the third consecutive year, citizens of the Nation of Ice are invited to unleash their inner party animal and defy the winter chill. Presented by Loto-Québec in collaboration with Videotron, Gestev and Multicolore, Igloofest Québec 2025 will call on fearless festival-goers to don their wildest winter gear and follow the trail of the yeti to Place Jean-Béliveau. With headliners Tiësto, Miss Monique and deadmau5, next year’s party promises to be bigger, zanier and cooler than ever.
TICKETS
Seeing is believing, which is why Igloosapiens are invited to pick up their day passes (for as little as $39 plus tax) as soon as tickets go on sale on Friday, November 22, at 10 a.m. at quebec.igloofest.ca.
Subscribers to the Igloofest Québec newsletter get early access to tickets starting Thursday, November 21, at 10 a.m.
Over 20,000 Igloosapiens are expected to brave the elements this March when the world’s coldest music festival heats up the frosty outdoor dance floor with vibrant beats and dazzling lights. Attendance skyrocketed by 50% between 2023 and 2024, and organizers are aiming for an even larger turnout by electronic music fans in 2025. “Igloofest has quickly established itself in the Quebec City market, and we're back with a memorable edition next March, says Martin Tremblay, President of Gestev. We're thrilled to see how quickly the event has grown. There's clearly a demand for electronic music in Quebec City, and that's why Igloofest Quebec is becoming an increasingly important part of our beautiful city's cultural universe.”
Returning to Place Jean-Béliveau for the third time, the festival will go with an enhanced version of last year’s crowd-pleasing site layout. Festival-goers can look forward to a spectacular experience with top-tier international artists and a party-till-you-drop atmosphere that will keep them dancing into the night against a stunning backdrop.
The legendary Après-Ski parties are back! After the festival, revelers can head to Boîte de Nuit St-Joseph and keep the party going into the wee hours. The Après-Ski lineup of intimate sets by select artists will be announced in the new year.
Local and global talent
As always, the Igloofest schedule promises a pulsating mix of local, Canadian, and international talent.
“We’re planning a spectacular blizzard of artists from home and abroad for the third edition of Igloofest Québec,” says Pascal Lefebvre, co-founder of Multicolore. “We’re proud to help take the signature Igloofest experience to new heights and bring its iconic energy to the four corners of Québec for the first time.”
On Thursday, March 6, legendary DJ Tiësto kicks off the festival with his genre-blending mix of electronic beats and innovative pop to ignite the dance floor. Opening for Tiësto are high-energy acts Nico de Andrea and Yas Khazen. On Friday, March 7, Ukrainian progressive techno sensation Miss Monique takes over Place Jean-Béliveau with her captivating sound. Montréal duo Hicky & Kalo and singer-songwriter and DJ SIN LESS will warm up the crowd and get the adrenaline pumping. On closing night, Saturday, March 8, Québec City native LOU FRE$H and eclectic trance talent TDJ will set the stage for the grand finale, featuring none other than deadmau5. The seven-time Grammy nominated Canadian icon will close out the third edition of Igloofest Québec with the hottest and most unforgettable set yet.
