  Festival of Cape Breton Fiddling:
Saturday, August 16 and Sunday, August 17, 2008

St. Ann's Cape Breton - From Kitchens to Ceilidhs and Square Dances, the Cape Breton fiddle has taken centre stage around the world.

Nowhere is it appreciated more than at home. When fiddlers get together, they share stories and tunes and such has been the case since the first Cape Breton Fiddle Festival in 1973. Once again this August, the 34th Festival, organized by the Cape Breton Fiddlers’ Association, will gather at its adopted home, the Gaelic College of Celtic Arts and Crafts in St. Ann's.

The Fiddle festival will include a series of workshops and concerts on both days. Workshops to be announced shortly.

Full concession facilities will be available throughout the weekend with plenty of free parking. For further information, contact:

Cape Breton Fiddlers’ Association at 902-849-8476;
the Gaelic College at 902-295-3411; or
the Department of Tourism at 1-800-565-0000.
