Rendez-Vous 2017, the Tall Ships Regatta Nova Scotia, will see sailing ships and visitors from around the world visit 11 ports across Nova Scotia this coming summer.
The international sailing festival aims to be a signature event to celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday in Nova Scotia, with a possible Gathering of the Clans to simultaneously celebrate the birthplace of New Scotland over the Canada Day weekend; from Saturday, July 1st.
The tall ships will sail from Greenwich in England, Portugal, Bermuda, Boston and Quebec City, arriving in Nova Scotia for Canada Day weekend in 2017 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Confederation.
Between late June and mid-August, tall ships will visit 11 ports around the province, including Lunenburg, Pictou, Sydney, St. Peter’s, Louisbourg, Pug-wash, Port Hawkesbury, Halifax, Shelburne, Digby and end with an evening sail past in Annapolis Basin, a first for Nova Scotia.
