year, thanks to the support of Desjardins, the festival-goers will be able to get their bearings and profit
from the many useful installations and different points of interest. Obviously, new things will appear,
including two \u201c5 to 7\u201d shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They will also find kiosques from local stores, promotional items of the FME, as well as a bar of regional
products. You will also find kombucha with red fruit and black spruce flavours in the image of the FME, a
product from the company \u00c9korce from Val-d\u2019Or.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year, the FME is setting up a new place: Safe Space. This space is a safe environment where we
can find social workers from the Point d\u2019appui and La Coalition d\u2019aide \u00e0 la diversit\u00e9 sexuelle de l\u2019Abitibi-
Temiscamingue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From August 26th to September 4th, whether it\u2019s in music, in podcasts, or a form of news column, the
CFME radio station will broadcast original content from big names from here that you won\u2019t want to miss!
It will be possible to enrich the experience of your festival by coming to assist the direct broadcasting of
radio shows which will take place from the Hub Desjardins from September 1st to 4th. Notably, you can
listen to the podcast Autre Atlantique, a collaboration between the festivals Avec Le Temps from
Marseille, La Noce in Saguenay, and the FME.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
podcast Tu Me Niaises every evening at 10pm directly from the studio. In addition, the international radio station Ferarock will be at the event from 11am every day of the festival. The radio will be available on 100,5 FM and online starting from August 26th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Concerning the more technological sphere of the Hub Desjardins, we can count on Jardin XR Newmont
\u00c9l\u00e9onore to entertain you. XR means \u201cExtended Reality\u201d and gathers just as many virtual reality
experiences as those of augmented reality or mixed reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This area offers a vast selection of immersive activities thanks to augmented reality technologies.
For this 20th edition, we welcome you with innovative projects from MUTEK, Sporobole, and the SAT
where the participants are at the center of the experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Friday, September 2nd at 11pm, the project LENTEUR, NAUFRAGE ET AUTRES STRAT\u00c9GIES PO\u00c9TIQUE,

Magan\u00e9, Pina Woods, and Ga\u00ebtan Parseihian. You will be immersed in an experience uniting poetry,
slam, visuals, and music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Especially for the 20th edition of the FME, the Brasserie du Bas-Canada, situated in Outaouais, created a
Pale Ale style beer for the festival. Called Ultime, it will be available in limited quantities and the festival
will sell it only at the bar of the Hub Desjardins during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

meet citizens during the festival and be inspired by their accounts to compose an original musical work
specific to this anniversary edition. He will then perform this as part of the closing show presented by
SiriusXM, on Sunday September 4th at 8pm. This project is achieved thanks to the financial support from
the Quebec government and the City of Rouyn-Noranda as part of the Entente de D\u00e9veloppement

Noranda will be available to the public who wish to revisit the history of the FME. This scenic route
consists of elements and artifacts which were a part of the scenography of previous editions of the FME,
and will be installed in key places, where fans of the festival can learn the evolution of the FME throughout the years. A page is also available on our website in order to situate the route of the town and learn more about the different editions they represented. You can see a route which forms the letters \u201cF\u201d, \u201cM\u201d, and \u201cE\u201d spread across the city of Rouyn-Noranda. The realization of this site is possible thanks to our partners: Fonderie Horne, Desjardins, and the Government of Qu\u00e9bec.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
