Nova Scotia: Doing business & staying in touch

Nova Scotia has a wide range of conference and convention venues. The Halifax Metro Centre arena in downtown Halifax has facilities for 10,000 people. Connected to this is the World Trade and Convention Centre, a striking landmark building made of brick and glass with a sumptuous interior and three convention floors, catering for up to 3,000 people. A number of hotels and venues in Halifax and Dartmouth offer good meeting facilities. Sydney's Centre 200 is an arena and convention complex built in celebration of Cape Breton's bicentennial in 1985.


Among meeting facilities in more rural settings are Digby Pines Resort, overlooking the Annapolis Basin and the Bay of Fundy; Dundee Resort, overlooking the Bras D'Or Lakes; The Keltic Lodge, overlooking Cape Smokey and the Atlantic Ocean; and Liscombe Lodge, tucked into the evergreens where the Liscomb River meets the sea.
