How did you enjoy the opening show?

The show may be over for the night but remember that doesn’t mean the music stops! Head on to the Festival Club in St. Ann’s.

Did you know that if you have CAA you can get into Festival Club for just $10.00 by showing your card!

The evening air is crisp and the leaves are beginning to show their colours.

As we prepare for the busy nine days ahead it’s alway good to remind ourselves of the quote by Celtic Colours co-founder Max MacDonald’s, “Remember, it’s a marathon, not a sprint”. #celticheart

It might be cold and frosty here in Cape Breton but things will warm up soon! Highland Village Day is just a little over 8 weeks away.

Who are some of your favourite performers to watch on the Highland Village stage?

There is lots to during the winter in Cape Breton. We met up with one of the core Gaelic students at @skibeneoin who stopped to say hello! #gaelic #gàidhlig #explorecb #capebreton #celticheart

What a beautiful day for a drive in Cape Breton! We’ve been lucky this winter to have sunny Sunday afternoons that let us explore our beautiful island. The sun was shining and tunes were flowing.
Who’s your favourite fiddler to taking along with you on a Sunday drive? ~Katherine
