After almost 50 years, the Coupe Mondiale, World Accordion Championships, is coming again to Canada. From August 17 to 25, 2013, the 66th Coupe Mondiale will be held in beautiful Victoria. This will be only the second time ever that the Coupe Mondiale has been held on Canadian soil (Toronto in 1964). The Coupe has become the world’s biggest and most prestigious accordion event, attracting hundreds of accordionists and accordion lovers from all over the world. No wonder that nowadays people call it Accordion Olympics. / [$ f# P6 L  _) Z8 s# s# I- u
