This past weekend was the 54th anniversary of Canada's National Ukrainian Festival.
CNUF board member, Cory LaFontaine thinks the Sunday night grandstand show was the highlight of the weekend.
"The finale on Sunday night was fantastic. So many people were very excited about it, it was an opportunity for these two dance groups, Volya from Edmonton and Pavlychenko from Saskatoon, to showcase what they can do. The finale featured 48 dancers, last time we had anywhere near that amount of dancers was in the 45th anniversary and that's when we featured 45 dancers for Shumka, now that dance on Sunday night was amazing. Again, I think that was the highlight or definitely the big show for everybody in attendance."
The grandstand show was different from past years where rock or pop stars performed.
Lafontaine adds the weather was perfect, the crowds were good, and the bands that performed were great.
