Gaelic Traditions

In the 1800s, Gaelic-speaking settlers from Scotland and Ireland made Cape Breton Island their home. Today, the language and traditions live on through music, dance, storytelling and hands-on experiences. Visit cultural sites, join a milling frolic or explore your Gaelic roots to connect with this proud heritage.
