About LASSO Montréal 2026
LASSO is Montreal's country weekend, on the same Parc Jean-Drapeau island that hosts Osheaga and îLESONIQ earlier in the month. The fifth edition runs two days across four stages, with Nashville names at the top and a deep Québécois and Canadian undercard beneath them. That mix is the whole idea. LASSO in the City takes over downtown Montréal on the Friday before the gates open.
Thomas Rhett closes Saturday and Mumford & Sons close Sunday, the second of those a reminder that LASSO reads "country" generously. Jon Pardi and Koe Wetzel take Saturday's other main slots; Old Dominion and the Turnpike Troubadours anchor Sunday. The Sirius XM Backyard sessions stage runs a smaller songwriter format all weekend, and every act's day, stage and start time is published.
Expect country, folk, pop country and indie folk across 36 acts.

Radio country's most reliable hitmaker — a decade of chart-toppers built on easy charm and hooks that lean frankly pop.
Traditional-leaning country with a '90s heart — heartbreak records written with a razor.
A neotraditional holdout in a pop-country era — fiddle and steel up front, honky-tonk shuffle intact.
Texas country crossed with grunge — ragged, loud, and closer to a rock show than a country one.
Country's most consistent hit-writing band — they wrote a chunk of Nashville's catalogue for other people before keeping the songs for themselves.
The sibling trio behind "If I Die Young" — harmony-forward country pop with a gothic streak.
Red dirt's most devoted following — fiddle-driven story songs a whole field knows word for word.
Arpin Lépine
Blake Whiten
Blue Ridge Band
Backflipping former pipefitter with a howl — raw-nerve folk-country redemption songs delivered with gymnastic stage energy and zero polish where it counts.
Hushed, aching songwriting from a Texan who turned a bedroom recording into a global hit.
Québécois band putting French lyrics over country and folk-rock arrangements.
Elizabeth Nichols
Québécois singer-songwriter on the folk-country side, singing in French.
Hayden Ryann
Ontario country band with a run of Canadian chart-toppers — arena-sized hooks over a bar-band core.
Joël Vogt
Georgia singer-songwriter working a whispered-to-belted dynamic, with streaming numbers to match.
Just Jayne
Canadian country singer who writes plainly about hard things, with a survivor's directness in the lyrics.
Krystel Mongeau
Texas country with a dreamy, smoke-curled vocal — took the long way round to a debut record.
Québécoise country singer-songwriter working in both French and English.
Lily Fitts
Oregon folk-country riser — earnest, streaming-era troubadour with a fanbase that found him one chorus at a time.
Morgan Griffiths
Noah Brigden
Paige Somerville
Mohawk Canadian singer-songwriter with a big rock-soul voice and an awards-circuit following at home.
Sorrene
Theo Day
Tyla Rodrigues
Teenage Arkansas country prodigy — porch-honest writing in the Zach Bryan lineage, wise beyond the birth certificate.
Zach Chico
The headliners
Thomas Rhett — Radio country's most reliable hitmaker — a decade of chart-toppers built on easy charm and hooks that lean frankly pop. Saturday's headliner: a decade of radio country condensed into ninety minutes.
Mumford & Sons — Banjo-driven crescendos that defined a decade of festival folk, now delivered with the electric guitars left plugged in — the singalongs never optional. Sunday's closer, and the booking that stretches what a country festival means. Banjos, yes, but a stadium band now.
Up-and-comers to catch early
- Theo Day — Songwriter slot on Saturday, early enough to catch easily.
- Krystel Mongeau — Québécoise singer on Saturday's Backyard sessions bill.
- Paige Somerville — Sunday evening on the Backyard sessions stage.
- Sorrene — Sunday afternoon songwriter slot.
- Morgan Griffiths — Sunday on the Coca-Cola RANCH stage.
Other acts worth planning around
Koe Wetzel — The loudest thing on the bill by a wide margin, and closer to a rock show than anything else here.
Turnpike Troubadours — Red dirt's cult act, the ones a chunk of this crowd is travelling for.
Old Dominion — Sunday's Coors Original PRAIRIE stage headliner, and the best pure songwriters on the bill.
Carly Pearce — Traditional-leaning country with a '90s heart, mid-evening Sunday on the main stage.
Cameron Whitcomb — The Canadian riser most likely to be much further up this bill next year.
Classe Moyenne — French-language country on the main stage, the clearest signal of what makes this festival Montreal's and not Nashville's.
