Folklorama Winnipeg

[Chrissss]

To those not from Southern Manitoba, the city of Winnipeg has long had an annual huge multicultural festival called Folklorama.

It has grown to be a 2 week festival, with different cultural pavillions each week as there are simply too many to take in during a 1 week period.

This week from Aug 10 - 16 there are the 2 pavillions that would be of most interest to those here:

The Irish Celtic Pavillion

And, of course, the Pavillion of Scotland

Are there any locals planning to visit these this week? I want to hit both, and especially the Scottish Pavillion on Friday night as that's when they're having their ceilidh.

I wish I could make it in for the event, Chris. Sadly it will not happen this year. Perhaps next.

I am so in for this.

Yes, we may have to make plans to attend this year. Make for a great kilt night, eh?

Oh yes, there were many kilts oot & aboot the nights I attended. The ceilidh was great fun with Celtic Rock bands hammering out their tunes.

I'll definitely take in a couple evenings worth again this year.
