The inaugural LVL UP festival features Lauryn Hill and J Balvin at Place Bell this September

Get ready for another Montreal festival (or close enough). The inaugural LVL UP festival features R&B / soul queen Lauryn Hill on September 21, and reigning reggaeton hero J Balvin (who’s also playing Osheaga) on September 22.

The festival will also feature a number of free performances on the grounds outside Place Bell, including Rymz and High Klassified.



Billed as an “urban music” festival with a number of digital components, LVL UP is being produced by co]motion, evenko, and HUB studio. Tickets for the Lauryn Hill and J Balvin shows are on pre-sale now via the evenko site.
