Throughout the day, families will enjoy free pony rides, petting zoo, circus workshops and children’s craft stations. All of our guests enjoy an opportunity to witness Aboriginal artists at work and participate in some of our ongoing Aboriginal arts workshops where you create your own unique piece or collaborate on a community artwork. The mainstage is lively all day with the “Aboriginal Canada, We Got Talent” contest, which draws incredible singers, dancers and other great talent from across Canada. As night falls, the mainstage lights up with some of Canada’s most recognized musical talent, with past headliners like Susan Aglukark and Eagle and Hawk. It is an event not to be missed, with something for the whole family and everything is FREE – admission and activities. Look for more program details on our website.
