About
The Show du Refuge is a benefit concert held at L'Olympia in Montreal, and this year's evening marks its 35th edition. It is a night of music with a clear purpose: every dollar of profit goes to the Refuge des Jeunes de Montréal, an organization that supports young men experiencing homelessness in the city.
The evening on stage
Louis-Jean Cormier brings together a line-up of six artists: Souldia, Klô Pelgag, Émile Proulx-Cloutier, Lisa Leblanc, Mon Doux Saigneur and Johanne Blouin. Together they revisit well-known songs in arrangements created only for this occasion, so the familiar material is heard in a form that will not return in exactly the same way.
What to expect
- A concert in a theatre-style room, with assigned seating.
- A shared bill of different voices and styles, with each artist reinterpreting major songs.
- A charitable evening, since all proceeds support the Refuge des Jeunes de Montréal.
The Show du Refuge suits anyone who enjoys live music in a seated hall and wants their evening out to support a local cause. L'Olympia is located in Montreal, so the concert can be combined with time in the city, whether you are a resident or a visitor planning a trip around the date.
