About the Area
The Maritime Fiddle Festival is held in the community of Dartmouth in the Halifax Regional Municipality.
It is one of the world's perfect places. With over 400 km of dramatic
coastline, white sand beaches, and one of the world's largest natural
harbours, it's no wonder life here revolves around the sea. But there's
so much more.
From city
streets to lazy
afternoons by the ocean, it's all here in the Halifax Regional
Municipality. Steeped in history, rich in culture, and refreshingly
cosmopolitan. For over 250 years Halifax has been a world class place
for business and pleasure. Fine dining. Great music. Fashionable
boutiques. Whimsical craftshops.
The Halifax Regional Municipality is an international urban center with
a rural cachet. It bustles and thrives with all the energy and
amenities of a capital city but within minutes of the city core the
area offers the small coastal villages, country charm, and wilderness
for which Nova Scotia is known. Nearby the festival location is the
Shubenacadie Canal and Shubie Park Campground so you can enjoy nature,
urban energy, and the festival all in one trip.
