CANMORE – Alberta – Canada – The Canmore Folk Music Festival in Canmore, Alberta is the longest running folk music festival in Alberta and one of its finest. Adhering to a philosophy and legacy of folk, world, blues and roots music, the festival since 1978 has attracted up to 15,000 music fans annually from across southern Alberta, western Canada, the northwestern USA and indeed the world. It’s a great Canadian Rockies family activity for all ages!
