Grant MacRea of Tourism PEI says that Prince Edward Island has many options for visitors. There are two, though, that he’s most eager to tout to NTA tour operators:

The Charlottetown Festival  Kicking off in early June and running until mid-October each year, the festival presents some of Canada’s finest performers in a professional showcase of musical theater and comedy. The 2019 edition will feature “Anne of Green Gables–The Musical” for the 55th successive season; “Kronberg–The Hamlet Rock Musical;” “Atlantic Blue,” a celebration of east coast songwriters; and the return of the hit musical “Mamma Mia!”

The Island Honey Wine Company  “Recently opened in the village of Wheatley River,” MacRae says, “the Island Honey Wine Company has four mead wines, all of which are made with some amazing local ingredients.” The winery is part of La Serena Farm, a certified organic farm.
