No such thing as a mid-festival slump: Weekend 3 draws us back on January 30 for TDJ’s soaring trance and euphoric melodies. Claireyy (founder of Cheap Thrills) will prime the stage, giving us even more reason to bundle up and get dancing.

Weekend 4 promises an explosive finish on February 4, with hometown hero Marie Davidson behind the decks, threading hypnotic techno with Italo disco and synth-pop. Also Cool favourites Fcukers join the bill for a DJ set – their recent mixes dig into ’90s and 2000s house, pairing dance-floor nostalgia with propulsive grooves and newer club cuts. Hauterageous take the reins on February 6th for Igloofête with a showcase featuring a lineup of certified club baddies, Miss Bashful, Siren Mars, and HYDRA.

Bladee Transforms Montreal's Igloofest Into A Frozen Dreamscape

On Thursday, January 23rd, 2025, Bladee transformed Montreal's Igloofest into a frozen dreamscape with the best live set we've seen from him yet.
Igloofest usually hosts at least one underground or alternative night a year (last year's was 100 Gecs and Surf Gang)—appealing to the city’s younger audience. The crowd was completely unfazed by the cold, with a respectful moshpit breaking out almost immediately. Both Drainers and new Bladee fans alike were dancing and cheering together all night long.

Bladee jumped onto the stage waving his signature jagged flag, ushering us into "Paranoia Intro" and the usual Cold Visions album setlist. However, instead of his usual routine (widely documented on TikTok during this tour cycle), he dropped rave remixes of some of his biggest tracks, including "BBY" and "Be Nice to Me".

Overall, it was an excellent set, with everyone from VIP to the back of of the massive crowd screaming Bladee’s lyrics. On the way out, everyone talked about how it was the best set they'd seen from him in years. Bladee’s Cold Visions aesthetic was completed by the perfectly timed snow flurries, dusting the shoulders of Igloofest goers in bright snow gear.
Igloofest continues this weekend! Get your tickets here.
