Learn the history of Canada's oldest continuously running fiddle contest

 

Since 1950, the Maritime Fiddle Festival has been the source for lively entertainment, spirited and fun competition, and traditional Nova Scotian hospitality.
It has grown from a small fundraiser originally organized to help build a community church, to Canada’s longest running old-time fiddle festival and competition.

Every year the festival welcomes participants, bus tours, and audiences from across North America and around the world.

Whether you are a fiddle player interested in competition or just have a love of great music, join us in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia for some of the best old-time fiddle entertainment anywhere in the world.
