2008 Performers
Headline Guest - Iron Brew
Every year, the festival brings in a headline guest to play the Ceilidh and contribute a workshop or another session during the day. We always try to book energetic and engaging performers from various parts of Canada. As we do every now and again, we bring together Regina's favourite Celtic band for a "Reunion Tour," and this year we are excited to have Iron Brew back on stage. Iron Brew's Gord Fisch will be contributing to the session of Saturday afternoon at O'Hanlon's, as will other band members.
The City of Regina Pipe Band
The City of Regina Pipe Band has been Saskatchewan's champion pipe band since 1992, and has also won prizes in the North American Pipe Band Championship, and at Highland Games across Canada and in the Pacific Northwest USA. In 2005 and 2006, the band extended its reach with performances at the Glasgow International Piping Festival in Scotland, and at Highland games there, where it won prizes in the Grade 2 events. The band has been working on new material for the 2008 season, and we know you'll enjoy another great show from the Festival hosts!
