Halifax International Boat Show Postponed

HIBS

Feb 10, 2022

Boating Atlantic and Master Promotions Ltd. are announcing the postponement of the Halifax International Boat Show, which was scheduled for March 3-6, 2022. The next edition of the Halifax International Boat Show will now take place in February 2023.

With the province announcing the extension of the current restrictions into mid-February, the runway has become far too short to present a quality event for both the exhibitor and attendee.

The organizers note that the Moncton Boat Show is moving forward as scheduled and is set to take place April 8 – 10, 2022 at the Moncton Coliseum. Master Promotions Ltd. will also continue to work with the Nova Scotia Department of Health, Events Nova Scotia, and the Halifax Exhibition Centre to explore other options for a boating and recreational show in Nova Scotia sometime this spring.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
