We had the opportunity to have a coffee on June 2 with Jan, Glen and Kate from a fiddle group called the Blackford Fiddlers. They are from Perthshire, Scotland. We met and discussed the Baddeck Gathering Ceilidhs. The group is planning a trip to Cape Breton in 2009. Find out more about them by clicking this link. They look like a very interesting group: do a lot of teaching and performing.
We look forward to seeing you guys at the ceilidh!
Welcome to the blog for the Baddeck Gathering Ceilidhs, a nightly summer concert series that got its name from a popular fiddle tune.

Welcome!
The Baddeck Gathering is opening a blog to provide a forum to share some of the stories and antics from the Ceilidhs themselves. Feel free to comment with your own stories and feedback, especially if you have had the opportunity to attend a ceilidh yourself.
We look forward to this season with anticipation as we have another great lineup and a history of good times fresh in our memory.
Keep checking back for blog updates, and of course if you find yourself in Baddeck, drop in for some tunes and tea!
