Lennie Gallant will perform again at Rendezvous Rustico this summer on PEI. It’s one of the annual appearances of PEI’s top singer songwriter.

The festival opens Friday evening with a BBQ and children’s activities followed by an Acadian concert at 8 pm featuring talented performers from across PEI. 

Saturday, July 24, at 8 pm local artists will be performing in the Song Writers Circle at Harmony House Theatre in Hunter River. This event, hosted by John Connolly, will feature Mario Robichaud, Jeannita Bernard, and Nick and Chris Gauthier. Following the concert there will be a homecoming dance at the Cymbria Lion’s club with music by Stagefrite.

The Sunday evening concert will be at 8 pm in St. Augustin’s Church. Tourists and Islanders have been marking it on their summer calendars for years. The concert is just one of many events over the weekend that highlight Acadian culture in the Rustico area. Rustico is Lennie Gallant’s home so his friends and family love to hear him perform on the home turf.

Tickets sold out last year. You can purchase them by calling 902-963-3252 at $20 adult / $15 students (under 16). Visa/Master card accepted.
