Drums and dance highlight the Pow Wow of Kanesatake that runs through the weekend in a celebration of the community's Kanien'keha:ka (Mohawk) culture.

The celebration brings out hundreds every year to the community and started as a way to build bridges after the 1990 Oka Crisis.

The pow wow has been re-launched twice since 1990, and is held at the end of August every year.
