The Festival kicks off with the Tall Ships® all gathering in Halifax Harbour for a weekend of activities highlighted by the Parade of Sail. And then you have even more chances to see these magnificent ships!

 

After the Tall Ships® leave Halifax, they will be visiting ports around Nova Scotia. One group of ships will sail along the Eastern Shore to Cape Breton. Another group will sail the South Shore of the province. While another group will visit North Coast Mainland Ports.

 

These ports with their strong connections to the sea provide a spectacular background to these sailing vessels. From ship building, to fishing, to privateers, you’ll see it next summer in Nova Scotia!
