Will you suffer from OSHEAGA 2024 FOMO?
What are some of the symptoms of Osheaga FOMO?
- You missed out on one of the largest gatherings of single people on the island of Montreal. Beautiful people everywhere!
- You didn’t enjoy past heroes performing classic or emerging artists you missed before their rocket ship to fame took off.
- You opted out of unleashing the fashion icon you are by creating the perfect outfit.
- You didn’t get to hang out with your friends, while listening to the hottest bands.
- You didn’t dance like no one is watching.
- You didn’t try late night food truck culinary delights.
This is 100% preventable! Head over to the Osheaga Websites and get your tickets while you still can! Click here for tickets.
Phew. Do you feel better now? There is just something magical about being on a man-made island transformed into a musical paradise for 1 week-end a year.
Friday Highlights
For fans of Portlandia and great music, get there early enough to catch Sleater-Kinney

Conclusion
Whatever your choice, Osheaga has enough variety for everyone. There is quite a bit of walking if you want to hit all the stages, but sometimes, it’s the effort that makes it even better.
Don’t get left out of the biggest music party of the summer.
