Edge of the World Music Festival on Haida Gwaii

EOTW 2013 Dedicated to Elizabeth Inkster

Some voices will echo for all time, as they are so unique among all others. One such voice is that of Elizabeth Inkster. Her love for music and amazing voice permeated the Haida Gwaii landscape for many years. Elizabeth, along with five or six other local music lovers, invested their own money in the music festival when it first moved to Tlell in 1999. If memory serves us, they didn’t lose any money that year, and the music festival has grown considerably in the ensuing years.

2012 Performers Schedule now available.

I’m COMING! But Where Should I Stay …?

There are a wide variety of places to stay in and around Tlell. From camping to unique B&Bs on the beach, Tlell has everything. But this year we have a new ‘player’ in town – The Haida House at Tllaal. Minutes from the festival grounds, this newly re-vamped eco-tourism lodge is the perfect place to stay. Book your stay and receive a 10% discount off the regular B&B rate! Discount is valid for the Festival dates of August 10th, 11th, and 12th, 2012 for double occupancy rooms only.
