| The Laxviken Can-Jämt Festival takes place in Laxviken, Krokum, Sweden, on August 3rd to 5th. The festival features accordionists and other musicians from Sweden, Norway, Finland, Canada, and elsewhere. The organizer is Canadian accordionist Edwin Erickson. There will be concerts, and dances on Friday and Saturday in Laxviken’s stately Community Hall, near the shore of the beautiful Lake Hotagen. The festival also includes technical workshops on diatonic accordion, impromptu jam sessions all weekend in the camping areas, and a Musicians’ Parade along the lake with horse, wagon, antique cars and strolling musicians on Saturday morning. On Sunday there will be a church concert and Finale with Group Play-Along. There are Camping spots with and without electricity at the Community Hall and nearby along the lake, Cabins and Suites within 5 kilometers, and hotel rooms available at the new hotel in Storåbränna (20 km). There is an authentic Canadian Cowboy Breakfast on Saturday morning at Sågbacken, continuous lunch and hot-dog/hamburger service at the Community Hall both Friday and Saturday, and ‘Loggers’ Pancakes’ (kolbulle) prepared and served outdoors on Saturday evening.
