The 2019 Santa Fe will make its official Canadian debut at the event

Hyundai Canada announced today that it will be back as an official sponsor of this year's annual Festival International de Jazz de Montréal. It marks the third consecutive year of Hyundai’s sponsorship of the festival, taking place from June 28 to July 7, 2018.

"We're pleased to be a sponsor of the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal. Recognized as the world's largest jazz festival, Hyundai remains incredibly supportive when it comes to helping to make music as accessible as possible to fans and musicians who visit from Canada and around the world. We are also excited to showcase some of our newest vehicles to the public – Some for the first time."

- Don Romano, President and CEO of Hyundai Auto Canada Corp.

Hyundai will thus have three vehicle display areas at the festival to showcase the Kona and all-new Kona electric, the brand-new Veloster N and Veloster Turbo, the Tucson and the all-new 2019 Santa Fe. The latter model will be making its official Canadian debut at the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal.

Visitors to the festival will get the chance to discover Hyundai’s latest vehicle up close. Hyundai is also providing the official vehicle fleet for use during the festival, made up of Sonata Hybrids and Santa Fe XLs, to support the transportation of artists and organizers of the event.
