| The 14th Accordion Extravaganza Festival runs from September 25th to 27th in Edmonton, Alberta, organised jointly by Enes Upright and Gloria Grainger. The main venues are the Central Lions Seniors Recreation Centre and the South East Edmonton Seniors Centre (SEESA). The festival includes competitions, and musical styles range from polkas to classical. "Our youngest person competing is six years old," Upright says. "Our oldest is in their 80s." Aside from the competitions, the Accordion Extravaganza Festival also features a trade show, open stage, a workshop, Saturday dance with The Cimarrons and a concert by the acclaimed Ulster Accordion Band (which has played at the Disney World Christmas Parade, Branson Missouri Veterans Concert and Juno Beach ceremonies, France).
