KWE! SHOW
Free - Great celebration featuring music artists from First Nations and Inuit in Quebec.
A Grand Gathering
On June 21, 2025, in honour of National Indigenous Peoples Day, thousands of festival-goers gathered on the grounds of the National Assembly to take part in the KWE! Show a moment full of shared smiles, songs, and dances.
The evening began with a moving performance by internationally renowned Wendat violinist and composer Geneviève Gros-Louis. This was followed by a powerful collective interpretation by 11 artists from Indigenous Nations in Québec of KWE! Où est allé tout ce monde qui avait quelque chose à raconter, a reimagined version of Serge Fiori’s Un musicien parmi tant d’autres.
To close the night, a heartfelt tribute was paid to Florent Vollant. Maten shared the stage with Zachary Richard, Vincent Vallières, Dumas, Scott-Pien Picard, Hauterive, and Ivan Boivin-Flamand. For the grand finale, Florent Vollant himself stepped onto the stage, delivering an emotional and unforgettable performance.
Our honorary president
Since the first steps of KWE! Meet with Indigenous Peoples in 2017, Dr. Stanley Vollant, a renowned surgeon of the Innu Nation from the Pessamit community, played a crucial role as the official ambassador of the event.
Dr. Vollant's reputation and commitment have greatly contributed to increasing the credibility and appeal of KWE. His participation in initiatives such as the Puamun Meshkenu March, “le Chemin des mille rêves” aroused significant public interest, encouraging many people to join this symbolic and significant march. A march takes place as part of KWE at each of our editions.
