Halifax is definitely the cultural capital of Nova Scotia. Here you will find everything from light opera to symphony to amateur and professional theatre to some of the best live music acts in all of Canada.
Halifax boasts several world-class cultural venues including the Neptune Theatre; the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium, home to the Nova Scotia Symphony; and the Nova Scotia Art Gallery located in beautiful downtown Halifax.
It is not unusual for a citizen of this city to start his or her Saturday with a morning stroll through the downtown market, followed by lunch at Privateer's Wharf at The Historic Properties. Then it's off for a visit to the Art Gallery before catching supper and then going to the Neptune Theatre in the evening to catch some of the best live productions east of Toronto. Welcome to the cultural life of Greater Halifax. There is something to visit and do every day of the year!
