Coig Holiday Show

Còig is one of Atlantic Canada’s most exciting Celtic traditional groups made up of accomplished multi-instrumentalists. With the fiery Celtic high-energy style as its musical core, Còig easily shifts between century-old tunes of past generations to original and upbeat compositions, featuring the band’s range of over a dozen instruments (vocals, fiddles, piano, guitars, banjo, mandolin, viola, bouzouki, whistles, and more). With driving tunes, haunting songs and infectious energy, Còig is an unparalleled music force. The Cape Breton band has earned rave reviews from audiences around the world and an impressive list of credits for their recordings, including a Canadian Folk Music Award, a JUNO Award nomination and multiple East Coast Music Awards and Music Nova Scotia Awards. The best in trad music, in a non-traditional way. That’s Còig. Advance discounted tickets, $25, available directly from the box office in early September. Regular tickets $30, available online and day of performance (if not sold out). And tonight is another chance to soak in the holiday brilliance of the Opera House decked out for the season!
