Summerfest - Cirque du Soleil - Charlottetown

This Cirque du Soleil event will be the first creation of its kind to come to Atlantic Canada, and will debut as a highlight of Charlottetown’s all-new family focused SummerFest. It's a departure from the “under the big-top” shows that over 90 million people have come to know and love, but will be equally as intriguing! The backdrop to this unique outdoor experience will be the incredible Charlottetown waterfront, which will be the centre of activity for SummerFest.

There will be plenty of activities and entertainment for the whole family.

• Custom designed performance imagined by world-renowned Cirque du Soleil
• Saturday night will feature Bachman & Turner and Great Big Sea!
• Children's activities - Doodlebops, the Swash Buckler Pirate Zone, Children's Characters, and the popular Petting Zoo.
• For the sporty minded, a Three on Three Hockey Tournament. Watch the action at Skateboard and BMX demonstrations and competitions.
• Two of Canada's top Urban Artists will create giant murals, and B-Boy Breakdance competitions.
• Back by popular demand, SandLand in the form of a sand jungle gym, sand sculptures, a giant sandbox and unique sand signage.
• For your viewing pleasure, daily performances of the West Coast Lumberjack Show, complete with log rolling! Buskers will also be roaming with shows all throughout the festival.
