'Take a Haliday' encouraged Maritime travellers to visit Halifax for an exciting staycation or nearcation, and enjoy a change of scenery.
In early summer 2021, the ‘Take a Haliday’ campaign was launched through a partnership between Discover Halifax and the Hotel Association of Nova Scotia. The six-week campaign aimed to get potential Maritime travellers from Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and PEI excited about planning a staycation or nearcation in Halifax.
Participating hotels in the region created unique, specific offerings to encourage travellers to visit Halifax and help bolster the visitor economy.
