The Halifax Convention Centre Visitor Info Booth
Tourism Nova Scotia’s visitor information booth at the Halifax Convention Centre will continue to operate during national and international events throughout the winter. This visitor information booth is a pilot initiative set to run until May 30, 2019.

The Nova Scotia Contact Centre
Research tells us that travellers are increasingly going online for their travel and trip planning information and using mobile phones as a platform to source their information. Throughout the winter, visitor counselling will continue to be available via the Nova Scotia Contact Centre, from 9am - 5pm, Monday to Friday. Visitors will also be able to pre-order the provincial travel guide Doers & Dreamers or download the e-version to their electronic devices.

Community-run Visitor Centres
In addition to operating the six provincial visitor information centres, the contact centre, and the Halifax Convention Centre booth, Tourism Nova Scotia provides funding to more than 50 community-run visitor centres. Click here to view a list of community-run visitor centres.
