DHBC was thrilled to welcome the JUNOS back to Downtown Halifax after an 18-year hiatus!
The month of March saw lots of excitement in Downtown Halifax with businesses hosting pop-up shows, social media exposing celeb sightings, and some of the best live music performed by the country’s best artists.
Downtown Halifax Highlights:
To get the party started early, DHBC awarded grants to several Downtown Halifax businesses who wanted to host local music in their space leading up to the JUNO Awards.
