About RIDEAU  

Rideau organizes the RIDEAU event, the most important francophone performing arts market in America since 1988. It is an annual meeting place for performing arts professionals and plays a key role for many producers and artists. It is an essential gathering place that encourages exchanges, business meetings, discoveries and artistic career launches. It plays a leading role and enjoys an ever-growing influence.    

Rideau is without a doubt the largest market of its kind in Canada, with 180 exhibiting companies and 1400 participants annually. It is an essential destination in the ecology of music distribution in Quebec and Canada. It is also the francophone event that presents the most showcases in its official selection. The observed spin-offs demonstrate the event’s influence in the national cultural landscape and its determining role in the circulation of diversified and quality shows throughout Quebec and in the Canadian and international Francophonie.    

About fifty multidisciplinary showcases are presented during the 5 days of the event, in about ten locations in Quebec City. The event will be held from February 12 to 16.
