The Fish Fun & Folk Festival takes place annually during the last full weekend in July at Twillingate, Newfoundland, Canada, and is one of the largest and longest running folk festivals in the Province of Newfoundland. The Festival is proud of its now world-wide recognition and success as a family-oriented Festival celebrating the culture of Newfoundland.
The festival’s celebrations start with a parade through town and is followed by traditional Newfoundland music, fireworks, folk music, adult dances, a street dance, fireworks, bonfire, a craft fair, games, a variety of fish meals, special church services, a children’s show.
Fish, Fun & Folk – it’s all here!
We will be in Twillingate Thurs July 22 & Friday July 23rd. Could you please tell me what events we will be able to attend on these days? We would be interested in a dinner theatre on the Thursday evening or some kind of evening entertainment as well as anything else that is going on. Thank you.
