POP Montreal is pleased to announce a live / digital hybrid of event performances for this year’s festival from September 23-27. Renowned for its robust programming of multidisciplinary artists, and deeply rooted in its local community, POP Montreal is proud to continue to deliver a festival of discovery for all who seek a refreshing preview of emerging acts and critically acclaimed artists. This year’s edition will be adapted to ensure the safety of attendees and adhere to all COVID-19 restrictions. Focusing on local artists, the 19th edition will have fewer shows and maintain social distancing protocols at both indoor and outdoor venue spaces. POP Montreal will be producing concerts in several venues including the historic Rialto theatre complex, as well as at Le Ministère and Martha Wainwright’s community art/music/ café space, URSA. These shows will have very limited capacity, with advance ticket sales and seating room only. All events will be accessible online via the POP Montreal stream “Funhouse 2.0” for at home viewing. 

Digital viewers can experience the festival via popmontreal.com, which will allow attendees to wander through a virtual 2D rendering of the Rialto Theatre complex, with access to live-streamed concerts, and other panels and performances, as well as an art gallery, and more. Dedicated to providing Montreal and the international music community with stellar programming, the festival promises special surprise events in line with previous years that incorporate the community and backdrop of the city.
