National Acadian Day, celebrated on August 15th, is a special day for the Acadian people, who are originally from parts of Canada like New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. It's a day where they celebrate their unique culture, history, and customs. People enjoy lively music, wear red, white, and blue clothes, and sometimes take part in a "tintamarre," which is a parade where everyone makes lots of noise. It's like a big, fun birthday party for Acadian culture, reminding everyone of how important it is to remember and celebrate their heritage.
