Terri-Lynn Mahusky and Kyle Felhaver have been added to the very talented list of instructors at this year’s Celtfest Workshop Program (Saturday July 10th).  Terri-Lynn will provide instruction for the Cape Breton Fiddle style, while Kyle will provide instruction for the regional/Ottawa Valley Fiddle style! 

Please pre-register for the classes on the Workshop Program page (online registration form is located at the bottom of that page).

Due to construction at the Almonte Arena, one of the main access points into the park has been cut off.  Parking around the Arena has become limited as well.  Please reference the Parking Map in this post or on the Directions page to find nearby parking lots. Read the rest of this entry »

The Saturday night concert in the Park starts at 6pm, not 6:30pm as stated in the Canadian Gazette.

The July 2010 edition of The Humm will include a special Almonte Celtfest Insert that will double as our program for this year’s event.  Inside the 8 page insert, you will find performer profiles, schedule of events, photos, and our many sponsors that help us put on the annual event.

To get a sneak peak of the insert, you can download a PDF version here:  celtfest2010web

The Pre-Registration Form is now available on our Workshops Program page!   Read all the details about the this year’s Celtfest College Workshop Program.  Beginner and Intermediate classes are available for most instruments.
