Osheaga Festival Announces 2024 Headliners: Noah Kahan and SZA, in addition to Green Day!
The OSHEAGA Music and Arts Festival presented by Bell in collaboration with Coors Light is shaping up to be an unforgettable weekend of musical delights! At last, here are the headliners who will be joining Green Day for this year’s festival: Noah Kahan and SZA, both recent GRAMMY nominees.
Hailing from Strafford, Vermont (just south of Montreal), Noah Kahan has made a name for himself as a truth-telling troubadour with a knack for writing catchy songs with unfathomable depths. The “Stick Season” singer has had a meteoric rise since he put out his first single, “Hurt Somebody”, to critical and commercial acclaim! Kahan, whose online buzz has been a veritable phenomenon, has over 22 million monthly listeners, and his music has been the soundtrack to millions of TikToks. With a high energy and twangy sound, Kahan has enjoyed being at the top of the Billboard rock and alternative album charts and has collaborated with some of the best and brightest in the business these days, including Kacey Musgraves, Zach Bryan, and a massive hit with Post Malone. On December 2, Kahan will take the Saturday Night Live stage as musical guest, a gig he said in a 2015 tweet that he would “do anything” for. Fans can look forward to chill-inducing singalong moments when Noah Kahan hits the stage on Friday, August 2 at this summer’s OSHEAGA!
Leading the pack this year with 9 new GRAMMY noms, SZA is one of the world’s biggest superstars at the moment, and despite being somewhat shy about fame, her exceptional live shows have been making headlines around the globe. Born Solána Rowe in St Louis, Mi, SZA grew up in Maplewood, New Jersey, where she honed her skills as a performer while studying to be a marine biologist – but her career took a musical turn when she became the first female artist to sign with Top Dawg Entertainment (Kendrick Lamar’s label). Fans will note that this isn’t SZA‘s first OSHEAGA: the singer was part of the stellar lineup back in 2015 as well! Since then, her star has been on the rise in a huge way – her debut album, Ctrl, has remained on the Billboard 200 chart since July 2017. Her follow-up, SOS, became the longest-running No. 1 album by a female artist of the decade, and she’s just getting started. With a fresh take on a classic sound, the singer, who cites legendary vocalists like Ella Fitzgerald and Lauryn Hill as primary influences, will be taking the OSHEAGA stage on Sunday, August 4 as a new queen of soul.
Announced earlier this month, Green Day will be playing their first-ever show in the festival’s history this summer, as they take the stage on Saturday, August 3, for what is sure to be an unforgettable night of pure punk rock bliss on! It has been over 6 years since Green Day last “came around” to play a show in Montreal, leaving the sold-out Bell Centre crowd in awe! Just this past week, the band took over the Grey Cup halftime show in Hamilton, ON for an electrifying performance some of their hits, including “Basket Case” and “Boulevard of Broken Dreams”. Many spectators claimed Green Day delivered the greatest halftime show in years! Now, with a new album on the horizon called Saviours, the iconic group is preparing a world tour for 2024 that will showcase their searing new material along with anthems from classic albums like Dookie (celebrating 30 years since its release) and American Idiot (that turns 20 next year).
The full OSHEAGA 2024 lineup will be unveiled in the New Year, and single-day tickets will be available. 3-Day tickets are currently available for purchase here.

All Things Go Toronto 2026 Reveals Daily Schedule Ahead of June Festival Weekend
All Things Go Toronto 2026 has officially shared the daily schedule for its 2026 edition, giving fans a closer look at how the weekend at RBC Amphitheatre will unfold on June 6 and 7.
The festival, which expanded into Toronto in 2025 after building a strong following in the United States, is bringing a lineup packed with indie pop, alternative, and rising Canadian talent. Doors for both days open at 2:00 p.m.
Saturday’s lineup is headlined by Kesha, who closes out the night with a set running from 9:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Before that, hometown favourites The Beaches will take over the stage from 7:30 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. The day will also feature performances from Rachel Chinouriri, Holly Humberstone, Sofia Camara, and Bella Kay.
Sunday shifts into a more indie-rock-heavy close with Lorde headlining from 9:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The lead-up includes a stacked evening featuring Wet Leg and Del Water Gap. Earlier in the day, fans can catch sets from Jade LeMac, MOMMA, and Flower Face.
The schedule reveal arrives after months of anticipation surrounding the festival’s Toronto return. Lorde’s appearance comes during a major stretch for the singer following renewed live activity and growing excitement around her next era, while Kesha continues her recent comeback run that has leaned into a more independent and celebratory direction onstage.
With set times now locked in, fans can officially start planning their festival weekend, whether that means camping out for barricade spots, bouncing between artists, or preparing for what could easily become one of Toronto’s biggest music weekends of the summer.
