This year’s official Kick-Off Party for registered delegates, includes a plan to experience a water view of the City of Saint John. Delegates will join the crew of the 10,000 tone Princess of Acadia cruise ship for an evening of music, food, and history as they tour the Bay of Fundy and Saint John’s historic harbour. On return, delegates can kick up their heels along with Saint John’s fans and Showcase performers at a giant wharf-side party already underway.

Join us for a special intimate performance by Saint John’s own Jessica Rhaye.
