Music
Every year, the Calaveras Celtic Faire brings some of the biggest names in Celtic music to the Mother Lode.
For 2008, Black 47 will be heading up the main stage. Perennial favorites like Tempest and The Black Irish Band return
to the faire, along with others still to be announced.

Stage Acts & Street Performers
That's Trey Cromwell, the Professional Showoff! eating fire on the left. There's plenty of food at the faire, but I guess eating eating haggis just isn't the crowd pleaser that a flaming torch is and when you're a showoff... well...
Plus there's mystifying magicians, jumping jugglers, beautiful belly dancers, and more alluring alliterations than you can shake a stick at!
Yep! How can you go wrong with all this?
Check out the full lineup of stage acts and street performers.
