🎶 Live Entertainment – Enjoy music and performances that will keep your feet moving.
🍦 Tasty Treats – Snacks, refreshments, and sweet surprises for all ages.

Runners, Stay Tuned!

Back for its final year is MACPASS Miles—the morning races across the Macdonald Bridge from Halifax to Dartmouth for children, youth, and adults of all abilities. Advance registration is required and will open shortly—we’ll announce when it’s time to sign up!

🏃‍♂️ And at the finish line, we want to hear from you! We’re looking for a new name for the race, to be unveiled in 2026. Got a great idea? Drop it into our suggestion box. If your idea is chosen, you’ll win a prize.

See you on the bridge, Halifax!
