Join us for a guided Land & Culture Walk at Baile nan Gàidheal | Highland Village. This special folklife experience offers an opportunity to explore the histories, traditions, and connections to the land shared by the Mi'kmaq (L'nu) and Gaels of Nova Scotia.

Along the way, participants will learn about traditional knowledge of local plants, medicines, and the enduring relationships between people and the natural world that have shaped Mi'kmaw and Gaelic life for generations. Following the walk, guests are invited to enjoy tea and freshly prepared bonnach while continuing the conversation.

Reservations preferred. The costs are $40 per adult or $20 per student.

As you experience this special place, a stillness washes over. The pure beauty of the trail, winding in harmony with the shores of the Bras d’Or Lake, is an exceptional backdrop to this authentic and powerful Indigenous cultural experience. Eskasoni Cultural Journeys provides an essential voice for Mi’kmaw heritage.

ABOUT THE PLAY
Glen and Sandy have celebrated every wedding anniversary by coming to the same rustic cottage for a romantic getaway. This weekend marks a major milestone: 50 years of wedded bliss. Well, mostly bliss.... A week ago, Sandy mysteriously cancelled their big anniversary party and kicked Glen to the curb. In desperation, he’s staging an intervention. Join these lovebirds as they hilariously recount the good, the bad, and the ugly of spending half a century together. From one of Canada’s most successful playwrights, The Golden Anniversaries is a comedy about marriage, memory, and a long-term love for the ages.
Matinee's start at 2:30 and evening shows start at 7:30
