Montreal
Ukrainian Festival
September 11th, 2004
The annual Montreal Ukrainian
Festival this year is running strong and growing on
its 5th edition. It was held at Parc de l' Ukraine
(rue De L' Ukraine and 12th Avenue). Ukrainian
entertainers as usual gave live performances on
stage from 10:00 am until 6:00 pm. The Ukrainian
Market Place is ever present and serves as the
melting pot of all savoir faire from the arts,
crafts, music and souvenirs. For the food
connoisseurs there were Ukrainian Food Concessions
and picnic area. You can sample the delicacies and
drinks at the Belle Gueule Kazak Beer Garden &
Hutsulka Bar.
The Ukrainian heritage is the selling point of this
festival and Montrealers should take this
opportunity to learn and sample the culture. It has
attracted over 7,500 attendees according to the
organizers.
It is a regret that I cannot cover the show in its
entirety. There are beholding sights that would have
been covered fully but due to ease in downloading an
edited cut or a skipped event would be sufficient. I
do not like to flash just insignificant parts of an
event's recorded material. It may not create the
same impact. The video that is presented here
attempts to cover as much as I could.
Special thanks to:
Hope you enjoy the clip.

I meet with
René and two of his friend Fran and Chris at the
festival. Indeed he was the one who posted a meeting
in the Montreal forum. Thanks René for the hint and
nice meeting you guys.
