Osheaga Music and Arts Festival has announced its headliners for 2023 will include Australian alternative dance trio RÜFÜS DU SOL, global pop superstar Billie Eilish, and rap royalty Kendrick Lamar.
Presented by Bell in collaboration with Coors Light, the 16th edition of Osheaga will take place on August 4th–6th at Montreal’s Parc Jean-Drapeau on the scenic island of Île Sainte-Hélène, situated in the middle of the St. Lawrence River with views of the Montreal skyline.
“15 years into this journey we have been fortunate to have some of the greatest acts in the world grace our stages. I feel that this year’s headliners continue in that tradition and represent what our festival is all about: Amazing live performances!” said Nick Farkas, Senior Vice President, Booking, Concerts, and Events at evenko and Founder of Osheaga.

All three headlining artists have performed at the festival in previous years, but only Kendrick Lamar was a headliner. Billie Eilish performed as a newcomer on the Valley Stage in 2018, and RÜFÜS DU SOL made a splash on the Green Stage in 2019.
“We are excited to see RÜFÜS DU SOL and Billie Eilish graduate to the main stages after their excellent performances in 2019 and 2018, and we anxiously await the return of Kendrick Lamar whose 2015 set is definitely in the running for one of the best Osheaga headline sets ever,” Farkas added. “Long live Live Music, we hope you enjoy this year as much as we will.”
Though only the three headliners have been announced, additional performers will be announced soon. The festival’s lineup has featured approximately 100 artists in previous years.
