their Jazz Festival, or Osheaga, are pretty safe bets.

The Jazz Fest is pretty big, probably their biggest musical tourist draw, the kind that will have headliners that aren't strictly Jazz Artists like getting to see Smokey Robinson in Toronto's once, so it should please good taste.

I've been to Osheaga once, the year Black Keys headlined Sunday and Snoop Dogg (the Lion thing had just happened) headlined Saturday, so a good variety but predictable hip lineups. It's still in the city enough, being on an island on the river, to enjoy the outdoors without having to go as far away. I can't really compare experiences to anything else though.
