In 2017, the festival announced it would introduce new measures to protect concert-goers after several people came forward complaining of negative experiences, including one woman who said she was drugged.
Evenko, the promoter behind Osheaga and ÎleSoniq music festivals, said it would follow in the footsteps of the Montreal Jazz Fest and bring in the Hirondelles— a trained safety team— to help protect women and other concertgoers.
