Marking its third year, the Ancient Future Festival is set to return to Montreal this summer, and the event has just rolled out its 2017 lineup.

The festival will take place at the Quai de l'Horloge and at Hangar 16 in the Old Port of Montreal on September 8 and 9. On those days, the event will feature the likes of Hudson Mohawke, the Underachievers, Sam Paganini, Kevin Saunderson, Étienne de Crécy, Omar Souleyman, Victor Ruiz, Eagles & Butterflies, Branko (Buraka som Sistema), Mall Grab, Johnny Trika, Mad Rey et Folamour, Kgoon, Grandbuda and more.

Also a spotlight will be shone on local acts such as Project Pablo, Atroxx, Rico Shae, Kris Tin, Nymra & Sofisticated, Zepha, Obsolète Collective and TGV.

Speaking of the festival, organizers stated, "At the edge of the river, the musical experience is a paradox between nature and the building where the past and the future confront. An independent and eco-responsible festival where landmarks are deconstructed to give way to hedonism and the unpredictable."
