The Celtic Classic Fiddle Competition takes place in the Charles A. Brown Ice House, a historic indoor venue on the grounds of the Celtic Classic. This is a unique contest focused specifically on Celtic fiddling styles, including Irish, Scottish, Breton (from Brittany, France), Cape Breton (from Nova Scotia, Canada), Cornish (from Cornwall), Shetland, and Galician (from Spain). For participants and audience members alike, it is an educational and entertaining event. Young fiddlers of all playing levels and from different backgrounds will perform both traditional dance tunes and slow airs from the Celtic lands. The contest is segmented into two divisions, depending on age. Three cash prizes with medals are awarded in each age division.
