The Yukon Storytelling Festival in October is sure to enchant the entire family, as storytellers from all over the world come to tell tales, sing songs, and perform dances and music from their native lands. Performers travel to the Yukon from every province in Canada and from countries as far away as Zimbabwe and Japan to celebrate a rich storytelling tradition under the midnight sun.
