There are one or two Irish pubs in Charlottetown that have regular sessions; can't think of the names. Maybe Old Triangle is one. In June, the summer 'ceilidhs' and 'kitchen parties' should be getting under way (weigh?) - not to be confused with ceilidhs and kitchen parties, these events are little concerts, at which, often, unscheduled musicians are allowed or invited to perform, after the stars have done their bit. Islanders tend to be pretty easy socially; shouldn't be hard to make contacts when you're there ....

There are a few fiddling sessions that go on here and there year round.

Shouldn't be hard to find what's happening with our friend google.

You might want to try hitting up the Benevolent Irish Society for a gig.

I shall be visiting PEI in June and was wondering if there are any join in type sessions on the Island

I will be going on to Cape Breton to visit musician friends as well so I am sure they will organise something there

Also if anyone has any contacts that organise House Concerts I would be very interested in contacting them

We shall be travelling and playing as a duo

Thanks in advance
