Definitely was a weak line-up, but no excuse. Veld was more than double the attendance of ours this year, single festivals elsewhere in North America are able to get star power. Evenko is just cheap and wants everything done on a budget. 

Outside Osheaga and Lasso (for now), their festivals have been rather stagnant. 

And expensive... Ilesoniq is 220$ for the vip ticket for a single day.

Here's Veld's prices for next year, 400$ for 3 days.

Et de la musique comme dans le 5ième siècle.

Sauf que tu payais pas 600$ pour 2 jours de musique et du feu de gâteau de fête au 5ième siècle

⬆️ En effet, ils payaient 600 sesterces.

30K for Lasso (both days) according to Evenko, so about 25K less than last year. So every festival this year (free and paid) have seen significant decreases. 

It seems outside Osheaga, all other festivals have plateaued or stagnated. We won't lose them thankfully, but not sure how long zero growth can be tolerated.

30K is nothing ooooh

Even less than the first year (35K).

25K for the Red Bull event today, much less than the record breaking 45K in Boston. 

Consolation prize: NOFX had their largest touring headlining shows in Montreal. Not sure about attendance but looks like 40-45K for two days as the ballpark.

The Red Bull venue was terrible.  

No grandstands, a "hunger games" approach to find a position you can actually see something....a lot left to be desired.  

One thing I'd love to see is Red Bull Drift Masters come to Montreal.
