Piknic Électronik Announces Lineup for 2017 Season
The Montreal series will take place every weekend from May 21 to September 24.
Piknic Électronik, Montreal’s premier electronic music events series which occurs every Sunday throughout the summer months, has announced details surrounding its 2017 season. The series will return to the Parc Jean-Drapeau but at a different location—Île Sainte-Hélène’s “Plaine des jeux”—every weekend between May 21st and September 24th.
In celebration of their 15th anniversary season, Piknic’s organizers have locked in a superb cast of artists to play each weekend. Highlights include heavyweight techno selectors from the likes of Seth Troxler, Nicole Moudaber, and Ovum Recordings boss Josh Wink, while Roman Flügel, Prins Thomas, The Black Madonna, and Shanti Celeste are among the more house-oriented acts booked to perform. Piknic will also play host to a range of talented local selectors throughout the season, such as Kora, Vincent Lemieux, Lazy Days boss Fred Everything, and My Favorite Robot.
