Don’t miss these upcoming concerts in Ottawa-Gatineau and beyond

Concerts in Ottawa, Eastern Ontario, the Outaouais and beyond are the subject of this continually updated post. Whether your taste runs to pop, country, hip-hop, jazz, classical or anything in between, keep checking this post regularly to find out which acts are coming to town soon!

If a show is part of a bigger festival or series, I’ll try to note that. If the show is sold out, I’ll do my best to remove it from this post. Sometimes, shows change dates or locations. I’ll update this post frequently, but if you see a discrepancy between this post and the concert promoter’s website, the promoter’s site is always right!

Perhaps you see a listing for a show you’d like to see, but it’s too far away or on a night you can’t go. Try searching the act’s name in the rest of the post. Often, if a singer or group is doing one show in the region, they’re doing several while they’re in the area.

Two other great sources of information on live music in Ottawa are Live Music Lovers Ottawa and Ottawa Gigs.

If you’re looking for other upcoming events in and around Ottawa, check my weekly calendar of events.

P.S.: If you know of an event that’s not listed here, or if you learn that an event has been cancelled or is sold out, please email me and I’ll update the post.
