For several years now, the Site Historique de La Grave in Havre-Aubert is home to the Festival Acadien, which draws a large number of visitors. For an entire week and a half, festival goers meet with Islanders to celebrate the arrival of Acadians, who populated the Islands.
The celebration starts with a small boat construction contest for which participants have a $200 budget and three hours to build a boat that floats. The celebration ends in beauty on August 15 with the fête nationale des Acadiens.
