Heard about Big Day Downtown?

We gave 30 writers $100 to spend downtown any way they wanted, and they have been documenting their experience. From new shoes, to comic books, to beers on the patio and art galleries - everyone had their own unique twist. From here, you'll find links to their blogs, videos and photos to find out more about their experience.

Now it's your turn.

Follow Downtown Halifax on Twitter and Facebook to find out how you can win your own Big Day Downtown. From August 19 until September 30, we'll be giving away VISA gift cards loaded with $100 for locations downtown. Stayed tuned, and then go to town.

We're also implementing changes to make the site more user-friendly and interactive. Let us know what you think. We're open to suggestions. If you require content from our previous site, you can access that info here.


What do you think?

We've recently completed a rebranding of our visual identity and positioning. We'd appreciate your feedback on the result.
