Things to see and do in Halifax
Halifax is the historical and cultural capital of Atlantic Canada. K’jipuk’tuk meaning Great Harbour was the name given to the area by the Mi’kmaq.
Walk along the Halifax waterfront boardwalk that follows the water’s edge alongside the world’s second largest ice-free harbour. Stretching from the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 – the gateway into Canada for over one million immigrants – to Casino Nova Scotia, you’ll pass unique shops, restaurants, and a bustling working harbour.
Hop aboard the ferry, North America’s longest running saltwater ferry, in fact, and cross the harbour to the Dartmouth side which is filled with more locally-owned shops, galleries, cafés, restaurants, and pubs.
Note: CICan will not be responsible for reimbursement of any expenses incurred in the event of cancelled flights or accommodations, lost luggage, or event postponement. It is strongly recommended that all delegates and speakers secure trip cancellation coverage or speak with their travel advisor as to their options should any of these events arise.
