LOCATIONS

“Originally a festival highlighting Canadian-bred artists, it has since doubled in length and exponentially increased its program lineup to become one of the premiere destinations in Europe to favor independent music and culture.” - Consequence of Sound, USA

"I had the pleasure to experience Le Guess Who? last year for the first time and was just overwhelmed by the loveliness of the event and especially the good nose for young and upcoming, but yet advanced and promising acts." - Guerolito Music, CH

“Playing Le Guess Who? fest was beautiful... in the exquisite city of Utrecht...a wick programme...” - Dan Haywood's New Hawks, UK
