Victoriaville is in "la belle province" of Quebec, Canada, I'd say about 1.5 to 2 hrs drive east of Montreal. I've heard good things about the Victoriaville festival, but can't comment personally.
Victo, as it is referred to by the locals, is probably a nice alternative to the Montreal Jazz Fest, which has become rather more a Music Fest than a strictly Jazz Fest and the crowds can be a pain at times, although indoor performances are usually top-notch.
