Sängerfest 2012


Sängerfest 2012 is the 40th Singing and Yodeling Festival, held every three years by the North American Swiss Singing Alliance (NASSA). This year, Sängerfest will take place during the Canada Day long weekend at Centre in the Square in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario. It's a place where the past and the future live perfectly together: it's the home of one of the world's largest old-order Mennonite populations, and the home of the world-famous Blackberry smartphone!
