Éric Lapointe and DJ Unpier will headline Le 47e Festival franco-ontarien (FFO), which will take place from September 23 to 25, in Ottawa. Damien Robitaille, who was to walk the boards on Friday evening, will ultimately not be there due to a “professional setback”, the FFO team also announced on Thursday.
On Friday night, Ottawa duo Twin Flames and Éric Lapointe will kick off the event, which will once more take place at Major’s Hill Park this year.
The next day, September 24, DJ Unpier will take over the controls of the evening and the turntables. He will be accompanied by his friends from the Radio Radio band, the Gros Big duo and a dozen other artists.
On September 25, a family morning will mark Franco-Ontarian Day, while the Hey, Wow formation will close the day.
