Information for Visitors
The Bridges Around the City website has lots of great information about making the most of your Halifax visit. In addition, check out our Local Hotspots List of attractions, art galleries, museums, eateries, and more. Participants are encouraged to add their favourite Halifax hotspot to the list.
Weather
Don’t forget to pack clothing layers to accommodate a variety of weather, including a swimsuit and a rain jacket. The weather can vary from day to day. There are great beaches on the lakes and the ocean around the city. In the Halifax rain and wind, umbrellas don’t usually stand up well, so a rain jacket is always great to have.
