About
International event happening since 30 years, the Carrefour mondial de l’accordeon is an annual festival of 5 days taking place in Montmagny (Chaudiere-Appalaches) during Labor Day weekend. The program presents artists from Quebec, Canada but also from many other countries. The musicians display all the tones of the accordion on our indoor and outdoor stages. The organisation also manages a music school in Montmagny where kids and adults can learn to play the instrument of their choice. It is also in charge of the Musee de l’accordeon, the only Canadian institution centered around this thematic and open all year long. Lastly, in partnership with the Corporation des Arts et de la Culture de l’Islet, we developed a new spring festival La Degelee! schedule in March in the RMC of Montmagny and L’Islet.

If you love accordion music (or even if you hate it), this place is an adventure. The Carrefour Mondial brings accordionists from all over the globe, and it seems as if every man, woman, and child in Montmagny plays some version of a squeezebox. We camped out, dined where we could (the locals provide their hearty version of baked beans), line danced, and heard the accordion stretched to its ultimate performance abilities. It was so much fun. Along the way up to Montmagny we stopped to sample hard cider at various cidreries, also fun. Highly recommended.

The Musée de l'accordéon has some very old instruments. It gives a very good view of the history and evolution of the accordion, bandoleon, cocertina etc.
You may also take the opportunity to buy some very interresting CD featuring many artist playing accordion.
In september there is an accordion week festival. I did mist it this year, but I am planning to go next year.
Also the staff give you all the explanations and is very freindly.
