#ParcJeanDrapeau
Contre-Courant
Parc Jean-Drapeau is proud to be associated with Bonsound and Hublot51 to host the first edition of Contre-Courant, a series of intimate concerts performed on various bodies of water in the province of Québec, including Jean-Doré Beach.
Spectators are invited to attend the concerts while they are on their boats or watercrafts, for a unique and unforgettable experience, as they watch artists perform on a floating stage specially designed for the occasion.
Contre-Courant, which emerged from a desire to make a connection between nature, human beings and art, is an alternative streaming platform embracing an eco-responsible thought process to allow people to take back and promote natural environments while joining together in an intimate cultural experience that exists between the artist and public.
