Our Westwood Mine recently renewed its partnership for another three years with “Osisko en lumière Westwood” as the festival’s presenting sponsor.

The largest festival in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region of Quebec, “Osisko en lumière Westwood” attracts tens of thousands of festival goers to experience local and international artists, a welcoming community atmosphere and the beauty of the Abitibi landscapes.

Since its creation in 2004, “Osisko en lumière Westwood” has established itself as a flagship event, and a key economic, cultural and tourism driver, for the region.

This partnership renewal comes after a milestone year that saw record breaking attendance at last August’s festival, including a sold-out show for artist Bryan Adams – the festival’s first! With the renewal of this strategic collaboration, “Osisko en lumière Westwood” looks forward to again welcome festival goers of all ages this summer.

"We are honoured to be able to count on the support of the Westwood Mine, a partner committed to the cultural and community development of the region. "This commitment will allow us to enhance the festival-goer experience, attract renowned artists and ensure the sustainability of the event for the next three years."

Frédéric Roy-Hall, General Manager, Osisko en lumière Westwood

"For our organization, it is essential to support the cultural vitality of our region, to give back to our communities and to energize our living environment, which also has the collateral effect of attracting and retaining new talent in the region."

Luc Joncas, Vice President, Quebec, and General Manager of Westwood, IAMGOLD.

Our Westwood team is proud to continue this partnership for years to come!
