Sparkling water, a thriving downtown business core, a working port and harbour traffic combine to make the Halifax waterfront both a picturesque destination – and one of Nova Scotia’s most visited locations.
With the sparkling ocean and a working port as a backdrop, it’s no wonder that the Halifax waterfront is home to countless large and smaller world-class events each year. From walk-a-thons, to Nocturne, the world-renowned Busker Festival to International Tall Ships visits, Halifax is a vibrant event city.
