St-Roch XP
Saint-Roch Urban Festival — the music respite takes Saint-Joseph Street · Saint-Roch District, Saint-Joseph Street East, Quebec, Quebec, Canada
The festival
In Quebec City, the Lower Town has its festival. St-Roch XP, presented by SiriusXM and organized by BLEUFEU, transforms the Saint-Roch neighbourhood — and St. Joseph Street — into a musical journey: emerging artists from here and elsewhere perform free of charge in fifteen places, from bars and cafes to the unusual shops and places of the neighborhood. For its 9th edition, from August 27 to 29, 2026, nearly 60 artists were to be discovered, between free showcases, shows in the hall, street kitchen and electro evening ends.
Good to know
Three aspects of the festival are the signature: the SiriusXM Vitrines (free shows in St. Joseph Street), the Ubisoft Series in ticketing at Imperial Bell — in 2026, the Gong Show and Piracy Heart — and the Extras XP, the end of the electro evening at Grizzly Fuzz. Also included is the Mini XP, youth and family programming at the Gabrielle-Roy Library, a gourmet journey among local restaurant owners and two prizes for the re-creation, including the Ubisoft Public Award. BLEUFEU announced a 10th edition in 2027 — the ten years of the festival — whose dates remain to be published.
