The American rapper from Memphis GloRilla was expected at the Plains of Abraham, Les Louanges at the Loto Quebec stage in the Parc de la Francophonie and the Quebec group Valaire at the Hydro Quebec stage at the Place de l’Assemble national.
On the other hand, the additional FEQs in the Armory Armory have been retained.
During this 55th edition, the FEQ had to deal with some cancellations. Rapper Lil Durk canceled Tuesday night’s performance. He was set to be the hip-hop headliner for the festival’s 2023 edition. Before him, it was French artists Christine and the Queens who were let down by festival-goers. It was replaced by Choses Sauvages.
Severe thunderstorm warning
At 9:13 p.m., Environment Canada issued a severe thunderstorm warning that could bring very strong gusts, nickel-sized hail and heavy rain for Quebec City. Fifteen minutes later, thunder could be heard.
The warning was lifted an hour later. But at the time of writing his lines, more than 11,000 Hydro-Québec customers are without power in the Capitale-Nationale region and 1,616 in Chaudière-Appalaches.
