Winter 2026 marks a historic milestone for Igloofest, as the iconic event expands beyond the province of Québec to bring its frosty magic across Canada. Renowned for transforming the coldest months of the year into a full-scale celebration of music, dance, and community, the festival will now take place in four major Canadian cities – with an additional market to be announced before the end of 2026.
For over 15 years, Igloofest has embraced winter in all its intensity. What began as a Montréal tradition has become a defining Canadian ritual – bringing massive crowds together in freezing temperatures to dance beneath the stars, united by the heat of electronic music and shared joy.
Igloofest Montréal 2026 is led by one of the festival’s biggest bookings to date: DJ Snake, a global superstar and in demand collaborator who has featured the likes of J Balvin, Travis Scott, Future, Selena Gomez, and more across his expansive catalog. He’s one of the most influential French-speaking artists in the world, making an exclusive Canadian appearance with his signature fusion of global rhythms and festival anthems in tow.
He’ll be joined across Igloofest’s renowned Sapporo and Videotron stages by high-energy powerhouse duo SOFI TUKKER, Belgian rap icon Hamza, pioneering Canadian selector A-Trak, and versatile French standouts Madeon, The Blaze (DJ Set), and Trym. Highlights continue with the debut of an explosive new bass collaboration, Black Tiger Sex Machine & Kai Wachi: Skull Machine, the atmospheric stylings of Elderbrook (DJ Set), and a back to back meeting of legendary minds between techno titan and MOOD label boss Nicole Moudaber and Montréal trailblazer Misstress Barbara, who celebrates 30 years behind the decks.
House and techno fans will be spoiled for choice with Disco Lines, the viral hitmaker behind this year’s global summer anthem “No Broke Boys” with Tinashe. Added depth comes from rising tech house sensation Max Styler, empowering dance artist Aluna, eclectic Peruvian DJ and producer Sofia Kourtesis, the dreamlike sounds of DJ Seinfeld and sleek selections of Cole Knight, Canadian-born, bass-driven house producer Nostalgix, and local minimal techno up-and-comer Guillaume Michaud. Additional highlights include Belgian chart-topper Lost Frequencies, Dutch electronic duo Weval (DJ Set), Japanese producer Qrion, hard-hitting techno producer AZYR, Scottish export Hannah Laing, and forward-thinking multi-platinum producer High Klassified.
Igloofest once again shines a spotlight on Montréal’s electrifying homegrown scene, celebrating the raw energy of the city’s underground on an international stage. This year, the festival welcomes two of Montréal’s most emblematic collectives – T.I.T.S. featuring Cori, No Police, and CHAR.L.N. B2B Inside Blur, and Hauterageous featuring San Farafina, Monib, and Siren Mars – each making their Igloofest debut and ready to get even the coldest crowds moving.
The 18th edition promises a wildly vibrant Igloofest, featuring an eclectic, high-caliber lineup of both local and international artists among the most sought-after names in global electronic music.
Tickets are available here.
