Festival SÈVE

The Sève Festival will take place from May 1 to 3, 2026, in Old Saint-Jean. Don’t miss this spring outdoor event! It’s the perfect opportunity to celebrate the arrival of warmer weather and outdoor performances. This fourth edition is completely free and will feature rappers Loud and Rymz, comedian Arnaud Soly, and his guests. There are even some surprises in store…

The main stage will be set up in the new public square in Old Saint-Jean, at the intersection of Saint-Jacques and Richelieu streets. The square will be closed to traffic over the weekend. 

Complete family experience

In addition to the musical and comedy programming, the festival will offer a complete experience for the whole family.

A family zone with giant games and entertainment for young and old will be set up. Then there will be
relaxation zones between shows. A varied food offer, including foodtrucks,
will enable festival-goers to treat themselves throughout the event.

Something for everyone

The 2026 edition of SÈVE will feature a selection of emerging and established artists from a variety of musical
and comedy backgrounds.

On Friday evening, Arnaud Soly will host a comedy gala, joined by Adam El Mouna, DJ Antoine Prinz, and other guests for an evening filled with laughter.

On Saturday night, Loud, Rymz, and several others will set the main stage ablaze with their infectious energy and dynamic stage presence.

This Sunday at 2:30 p.m., to bring the festival to a spectacular close, a big name in Quebec music will put on a surprise show at Parc des Éclusiers, with Sugar Crush performing right before—an event you won’t want to miss!

Once again, the SÈVE festival promises a festive atmosphere, cultural discoveries and an authentic connection between artists and audiences.
