Régates de Valleyfield press Conference

With less than 67 days before the first shows you can smell the warm July breeze and the refreshing air of the Régates de Valleyfield.

Something for everyone :

The event planners at Regates de Valleyfield have been working hard to find a recipe that will please a wide cross section of the population.  Looking back on the success of the first evening of Dance music in 2011 it was evident that this experience of dancing under the open sky was something that was to be repeated and this time with MC Mario and his young protégé Miss Shelton.

A well-known name in the music industry Roch Voisine will make his first appearance at the Valleyfield event this summer.  Roch Voisine will only participate in 4 or 5 stops during the entire summer of festivals and Salaberry-de-Valleyfield is one of them.

William Deslauriers and Misteur Valaire will also be making their first ever appearance at the Régates de Valleyfield event while other groups such as; Les Cowboys Fringants, Kain, and the Porn Flakes who have already gained the love of the Valleyfield audience in the past will be back.

And now, a look to the future:

Once again this year the Régates de Valleyfield has opened its doors to welcome new talented groups with the presentation of “Rock tes Régates”.  The three groups chosen this year are; Heal, Eldeanne, and Guâdjéwâ.  A fourth artist will be chosen to take part in the July 6^th competition and will be chosen during a new and upcoming music festival, ARTEFACT.

Racing:

The Hydroplane racing will be the best ever this summer and especially in Valleyfield and it will be the same for every class.  Do not miss your chance to see the most electrifying racing ever at the 74^th edition of the Regates de Valleyfield July 13^th, 14^th, & 15 in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield.  See you there!
