 38,000 attendees, the largest single-crowd seen since Osheaga's inauguration, stretched the venue's 35,000 capacity.Despite the absence of a similarly high-profile performer, the seventh edition of Osheaga in 2012 sold out at 120,000 total attendees over the three-day weekend from August 3–5, 2012.Farkas credited the surge to 2011s big-name lineup and the festival's recognition outside Montreal.
