Canadian Fiddle and Stepdance Championship - Pembroke, Ontario

Canadian Fiddle and Stepdance Championship - Pembroke, Ontario Every Labour Day weekend talented musicians and dedicated fans gather in Pembroke Ontario Get our your dancing shoes and rosin up your bow!

Every Labour Day Weekend you will find the best fiddlers and step dancers in Canada gathered together in beautiful Pembroke, Ontario. Riverside Park is transformed into Fiddle Park, and thousands flock to Pembroke to enjoy traditional fiddle music and step dancing. It's family fun at its best. It started in 1975, when a group of friends who loved to get together and play their fiddles decided it was time to make it an annual event! Brian Adam, Romeo Levasseur, Jim Hickey, Tommy Leclerc, Mike Berrigan were key to the success of the event at the time, and throughout the years, more people have volunteered their time and talent to ensure that The Old Time Step Dancing and Fiddling Competition endures, including: Diane Hickey, Ray Harnish, Don Rosien, Richard Jones, Dan Schryer and Laurie Serran. Fiddlers, dancers and friends of the event begin arriving at Riverside Park the week prior to the actual competition to enjoy some jamming and catching up. Fiddle Park becomes home to music, fun and friends!
