Newfoundland & Labrador Folk Festival schedule
The 38th Annual Newfoundland & Labrador Folk Festival will
be held in Bowring Park in St. John's, Newfoundland from August 8--10, 2014. (In 2015 it will return to its usual home in Bannerman Park.) The festival web page is http://www.nlfolk.com/fest2014/ and the main stage schedule is up at http://nlfolk.com/fest2014/schedule/ . I think bios of performers will be added soona as will schedules for the smaller stages. This year the best known act from outside Newfoundland is Gord Downie who will headline the Saturday night. Kevin Burke and Basia Bulat are also well known performers from outside Newfoundland. Also there are many excellent local performers.
