Kesha to Headline Festival d’été de Québec 2026
Kesha will headline the Festival d’été de Québec (FEQ) from July 9 to 19, 2026, a major event that will feature over 175 shows across six stages. General admission festival passes for all 11 days start at $180, making it accessible for fans eager to experience a diverse lineup of performances.
The festival, which will take place at The Plains of Abraham, a significant historical site in Canada, is known for its vibrant atmosphere and community focus. Nicolas Racine, a representative of the festival, emphasized the event’s mission, stating, “FEQ is much more than a series of big concerts: it’s a gathering that brings people together and gives back.”
Kesha’s announcement comes on the heels of her celebration of International Women’s Day, where she posted a photo on Instagram wearing a sheer black corset top with floral lace details. Her post included a playful message: “My god, wouldn’t it be terrible to be a man. #IWD2026,” showcasing her bold personality and commitment to women’s empowerment.
This year’s festival is designed to be unifying, with Louis Bellavance, another festival organizer, noting, “This year, we’re betting on a decidedly unifying program, carried equally by all of our headliners—artists who have shaped popular culture and who continue to thrill crowds.” Kesha’s participation aligns with this vision, as she is recognized for her impactful contributions to the music industry.
The Festival d’été de Québec has a rich history of hosting major artists, including Paul McCartney, Lady Gaga, and Elton John, drawing large crowds and creating memorable experiences for attendees. With Kesha as a headliner, the 2026 festival is expected to attract significant attention and participation.
As the festival date approaches, fans and observers eagerly anticipate the full lineup and additional details about the event. Details remain unconfirmed regarding other potential headliners and special performances that may be announced in the coming months.
