🗓️26-28 June 2026⁠
⁠
In an inspired twist on the ubiquitous cultural fair concept, world and folk music echoes throughout the mystical jungles of Kuching in Sarawak as performers from across the globe converge with instruments as old and enduring as music itself – from Sarawakian lutes and Syrian ouds to West African koras and Australian didgeridoos.⁠

Most travellers who make it to Canada's west coast Most travellers who make it to Canada's west coast stop at Vancouver Island and consider the job done. Haida Gwaii rewards those who go further.⁠
⁠
This remote archipelago of some 200 islands off the northern BC coast is where old-growth temperate rainforest teems with bears and bald eagles, and the sea offers a breathtaking counterpoint to all that lush greenery. The cultural draw is equally powerful: Haida Gwaii is the ancestral home of the Haida Nation, whose remarkable indigenous renaissance has given the world – among other treasures – the Unesco-listed village of SGang Gwaay, its standing totem poles keeping watch over centuries of ancestral memory. ⁠
