Two bands will perform on Friday, and two bands will perform on Saturday. Admission is free on Friday evening again this year. As is customary every year, forty amateur teams will compete on Saturday and Sunday for the trophy, which will be presented on Sunday evening during what is sure to be a unique awards ceremony. Following the ceremony, you can shake off the fatigue of the past few days by hitting the dance floor. Throughout the festival, there’s a children’s program that culminates with a children’s theater performance on Sunday at noon. Of course, there are campsites, a bonfire, and plenty of food and drinks to satisfy your hunger and thirst. Traditionally, the proceeds go toward cultural initiatives and other charitable causes.
