Celtic Colours Festival Club, brought to you by Big Spruce Brewing with official cider provider Island Folk Cider House, is located at Colaisde na Gàidhlig [The Gaelic College] in St. Ann’s. The licensed Club opens as the evening concerts are closing, offering an opportunity for Festival artists to showcase in a more informal setting, or to get a session in with friends and colleagues from near and far. It also serves as a spot to wind down and catch up with friends at the end of the day. Performance is by invitation only and depends upon artist availability on any given night. Tonight’s host is Jordan Musycsyn and the featured artist is Andrea Beaton & Troy MacGillivray & Brent Chaisson. Tickets are available at the door only. A shuttle runs between select Baddeck area hotels and Colaisde na Gàidhlig [the Gaelic College] provided by NSLC’s Safe Rides with support from Victoria County. Check the Festival Club Shuttle schedule here.
