Hunter Mountain’s International Celtic Festival: This weekend!

Hello everyone, and greetings from Hunter Mountain! The weather seems to be cooling from recent heat waves, just in time for one of our most popular summer events, the International Celtic Festival. The festival kicks off August 18 & 19, and gates open at 10am on Saturday and 8am on Sunday, with entertainment starting at noon on Saturday and 9am on Sunday with the pipe band competition. With plenty of live music, food and drinks, vendors and children’s activities, how could you not want to stop by this fantastic annual celebration?

The Skyride will be open (for festival-goers only), mountain biking will be available, and there will be plenty to do for everyone. Live entertainment includes such acts as Black 47, Eileen Ivers and Immigrant Soul, Glengarry Bhoys, Andy Cooney and much more. Head up to Hunter on Sunday for the Mass March, where hundreds of bagpipers march down the mountain, or observe the pipe band competition. For an entertainment schedule, click here >>

International Celtic Festival tickets are available online at a discounted rate of $10 per person (or $12 at the gate), so get your tickets in advance and pick them up at the window when you show up! Head over to the website to purchase your tickets in advance! >>
