Annual Madawaska Acadian Festival

46th Annual Madawaska Acadian Festival

The Acadian people have a rich history that spans two continents. Today, Maine is one of the areas that they call home. For 45 years, Madawaska Acadian Festival has celebrated everything Acadian in Madawaska, ME. We bring a week of amazing events to the Madawaska community that highlights the local culture and bring rich history to the general populace. We do not charge an entrance fee for our festival, and the only ticketed event is our concert.
