TORONTO — Rapper Kendrick Lamar and pop singer Billie Eilish are headlining next year’s Osheaga music festival in Montreal.
The two Grammy-winning stars will join Australian alternative dance trio Rüfüs Du Sol as the main acts for the festival, which runs Aug. 4 to 6 at Parc Jean-Drapeau.
Rüfüs Du Sol will play as the Friday night headliner, while Eilish performs on Saturday and Lamar closes the event on Sunday.
All three acts have appeared at Osheaga in past years, with Lamar hitting the main stage in 2015, while Eilish performed on a smaller stage in 2018 and Rüfüs Du Sol made their debut at the festival a year later.
Three-day passes for Osheaga go on sale Friday at 10 a.m., while organizers say details on the rest of the lineup will be announced in the coming months.
