Waterfall Season returns to Cape Breton Island!
As autumn's vibrant hues cover Cape Breton Island's hills and coastlines, one event captures the season’s essence perfectly: the Celtic Colours International Festival. Held each October, this renowned festival blends music, culture and natural beauty
June on Cape Breton Island is when music fills the air, feet find rhythm on wooden floors, and communities come together in celebration of culture, heritage, and shared joy.
As the crisp autumn air settles over Cape Breton Island, the landscape transforms into a vibrant tapestry of red, orange and gold. This season is the perfect time to explore the Island's natural beauty, rich culture and warm hospitality.
When you think of a “weekend getaway” you don’t have to travel very far as there are so many incredible places to find adventure in Cape Breton.
Cape Breton Island is not only a place of stunning natural beauty and rich cultural heritage but also a welcoming destination for the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
When you get to a certain point, you look to your left and you see a towering lighthouse and you look to your right and you see this fortress, which is unlike being anywhere else, at least in Canada.
This fall, explore Cape Breton's variety of breweries and distilleries found all over the island.
Tap your toes to fiddle tunes at a Ceilidh. See authentic Acadian crafts at Les Trois Pignons. Take a piece of Mi’kmaq culture home with you at a drum-making workshop. On Cape Breton Island, culture is all around you just waiting to be explored!
