Families who wish to plan one last wonderful vacation before the summer comes to an end should consider booking tickets for a Canadian rail tour this August. From the 25th to the 28th of the month, Ottawa will celebrate its annual folk festival for the 18th year in a row.

Both parents and children are sure to enjoy the many exciting events and attractions that will take place as part of the community-focused festival. Hog's Back Park will host the celebration this year for the first time. Due to the great success of previous events, officials made the decision to move to this larger, outdoor venue.

Individuals who are taking train trips across Canada may be excited about the numerous performances that they can take in at the Ottawa Folk Festival. These include concerts by musical acts, dance shows, culturally diverse presentations and folk plays. In addition, there will be a Kids Zone complete with a playground and an Artisan Village where visitors can purchase handmade crafts.
