Banff Summer Arts Festival
Folkorama
Canadian people take pride in their multicultural society which makes Canada different from other immigrant countries. So many local traditional festivals which are related to folk music, traditional food, and many other things may be the best representation.
One of the festivals is the Banff Summer Arts Festival. It is one of North America's biggest arts activities and will be held in Banff Center annually where opera, symphony, ballet, and theater performances will be presented. If you go there, you can experience the traditional music there.
Then, another famous festival is Folkorama, which will last for one week during August in Winnipeg. More than 40 different races will show their diverse cultures through ethnic dances, songs, exhibitions, and food. The festival will be a visual and auditory feast and if getting the chance to get there, don't miss the cultural collision.
