The annual Cape Breton Exhibition runs August 13-18th! For well over 100 years the CBEx has been a destination for friends, neighbours and visitors from across North America. You might even say it’s Cape Breton’s Original Summer Tradition. It’s 5 jam-packed, fun filled days featuring horse shows, the MBRA Ram Rodeo, livestock exhibits, local vendors, midway fun and of course the CBEx Outdoor Entertainment Stage showcasing some of Cape Breton’s finest entertainers!
There’s something for everyone – see you at the CBEx!
