    About

    As the golden hues of autumn begin to settle over Montréal, electronic music festival lovers will once again gather at Parc Jean-Drapeau for one of the city’s most high-octane nightsOfF Piknic Electronik 2025. Set for Friday, October 3rd, this special edition unfolds in the heart of Jardin Le Petit Prince, blending the natural charm of the island venue with pulsating sounds from techno royalty. From 5PM until 10PM, the FIZZ Stage becomes a beacon for dance music connoisseurs eager to experience the raw energy of a lineup that bridges legacy and innovation.

    Returning to headline is none other than Carl Cox, a name synonymous with the evolution of global electronic music. His magnetic presence behind the decks is matched only by his mastery in guiding the crowd through a rollercoaster of rhythm, groove, and intensity. Joining him is Chris Liebing, the Frankfurt-born pioneer known for his industrial-leaning techno sets and cerebral soundscapes. Opening duties fall to Omar Hamdi, one of Québec’s most promising rising talents whose percussive, driving sets have steadily gained acclaim across the Canadian underground circuit.
