Immerse yourself in the culture of Cape Breton Island with Celtic Colours Cultural Experiences. Break bread and share a home-cooked meal at one of the many community meals or visit a farmers’ market for locally-grown food and handmade goods. Be entertained and enlightened at a workshop or join in a square dance or a milling frolic. Get outside and enjoy the spectacular autumn scenery with a guided walk, hike, or boat tour. Hundreds of cultural experiences await you during the Festival, in communities all over the Island, where the culture has been maintained and nurtured for more than 200 years.
