DJ Hokum and Mathieu Riel's Voyageurs

June 28 in Vieux-Hull - 6 to 8 p.m.

Strolling entertainment: Surreal stories and intimate moments to share in the poetic rain. Two travelers in exile haul their large suitcases on wheels. As they wander, they face the elements, winds and sudden showers they're used to. Little by little, they create a complicity with the audience, until they put down their luggage and take a moment to poetically recount fragments of their story.

DJ CheeseBacon and Moov Ottawa Dance

July 5 in Vieux-Hull - 6 to 8 p.m.

Originally from Gatineau, Dj CheeseBacon has let his style be influenced by the many encounters and discussions he's had with people along the way. He started with a predominantly hip-hop and RnB style at the beginning of his career, then moved on to a musical style largely inspired by the African continent and the Caribbean islands 6 years ago. As a result, he's been performing in a variety of venues in Vieux-Hull and at various festivals in the region.

In animation: Travelers Gaspard and Ida are lost in time. With the help of their map, the kind advice of passers-by and, of course, their old-fashioned velocipede, these two characters from another time and place manage to find their way back... or so they hope!

Cobra du Mandingue

July 19 in Old Hull - 6 to 8 p.m.
