The competition for the title of best summer music festival in North America just got another contender.

The acts scheduled to play this year’s Osheaga Music Festival were announced this week, and in case you missed it, it’s pretty damn impressive. The two-day festival takes place on July 31st and August 1st in downtown Montreal, and boasts a lineup that includes Weezer, Pavement, Metric, The National, Stars, Deadmau5, The Cat Empire, Keane, The Black Keys, The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Jimmy Cliff, The Gaslight Anthem, Beach House, Jamie Lidell, Robyn, Sarah Harmer, Blitzen Trapper, Bahamas, and more.

The most exciting part of this announcement? By popular demand, this year’s Osheaga will see the first Canadian performance by Montreal’s Arcade Fire since their Neon Bible tour in 2007. The hometown heroes will be headlining the festival’s first day, and if that doesn’t excite you, than you clearly haven’t seen the band’s Miroir Noir tour documentary or this before.

To recap: some amazing bands (including four of my ten all-time favourites, but I’m not going to tell you which ones), outdoors in beautiful Parc Jean-Drapeau, with reasonably-priced single day and weekend passes. Pre-sale tickets are already sold out, but you can head over to the Osheaga website for more information, or follow the festival on Twitter for the latest updates.
