Gathering together to share experiences is at the heart of Nova Scotia's culture. And that's what we do best.
Events East brings the best events from around the world to our province, attracting new people and opportunities.
Designed to meet the needs of multiple events, Nova Scotia’s new Halifax Convention Centre offers over 120,000 square feet of flexible event space in the heart of downtown. Here, our guests are steps away from vibrant Halifax life. We connect to the best local dining, and fantastic arts and culture. Blending the most experienced team with the largest, most flexible event space in Atlantic Canada, we help build unique events. The Halifax Convention Centre is part of the Nova Centre, a one-million square foot, mixed-use development including a hotel, financial tower and retails space. It is the largest integrated development project in the province’s history.
The Scotiabank Centre is the largest multipurpose facility in Atlantic Canada, serving as the region’s premier venue for major entertainment and sporting events and the nucleus of major event activity in Nova Scotia. Having hosted the world’s top performers, homegrown talent, best-in-class athletes and many performers in between, Scotiabank Centre has been a source of community vibrancy and pride for over 45 years. With a seating capacity of more than 10,000 and the versatility to accommodate a range of events, Scotiabank Centre hosts close to 500,000 attendees each year and is home to the Halifax Mooseheads, Halifax Thunderbirds Lacrosse and the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo.
