The 2025 edition features updates to your favourite content, plus some new additions

If you’re thinking of visiting the Halifax Regional Municipality, or if you’re local and looking for some fun new ideas in HRM, Discover Halifax has just the thing for you – the 2025 Halifax Visitor Guide.

Meticulously crafted by the Discover Halifax team, the Visitor Guide is produced in-house with contributions from local artists and knowledgeable writers. Featuring informative stories, curated content, and creative experiences, the 2025 Visitor Guide is truly a comprehensive resource designed to help you go from considering Halifax to booking that trip.

While much of the content remains consistent year over year (including maps, regional descriptions, and information about transit options), there are some new additions in the 2025 guide, including:

  • Where to eat, shop, and explore at the new Cunard District;
  • One-of-a-kind Halifax adventures;
  • History and legacy of the Shubenacadie Canal;
  • An insider's guide to 2SLGBTQIA+ Halifax;
  • Bird watching at the Halifax Public Gardens;
  • Runner's travel guide to Halifax; and
  • What to do after you've visited Peggy's Cove.

Bookmark this page on your mobile device for inspiration all year long.

The Visitor Guide is provided at no cost, and is funded, in part, by member advertising and in partnership with organizations throughout the municipality, including business improvement districts.

Copies will be distributed across HRM hotels, attractions, and Discover Halifax member businesses. Individual and bulk orders of the Official Visitor Guide, and the Halifax Kids’ Guide, can be made here.
