World music, water dances, and a giant firewalk parade!
Jamaican reggae with Junior Reid on Saturday is a "don't miss" concert. Share encounters with Voyageur canoeists, water dances with the Thai Dance Troupe of Ottawa and DanzArte, and enjoy wakeboarding demos. The weekend highlight will be Saturday evening's giant fire-walk parade, where you can join with thousands of other revelers, giant fish, birds, sea creatures and deities, and an accompanying torch-lit flotilla of canoes and kayaks on the water.
