Yes, I normally try to make it up to Ottawa for it!

Fortissimo is multiple military bands performing on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. Held this year on August 19-20/05
I really don't know much about it, except I do know that we sent an invite to the Parc and Dare Brass band from Whales. You may have seen them at the Nova Scotia International Tattoo? They might show up. Also I heard rumour that the Stadacona Band from Halifax is coming.

I believe the dates are the 19th and 20th of August at 7pm.

Hope you can make it. Should be pretty cool.
