Welcome to Bordertown, Sackville’s presentation of some of the very best we have to offer in Arts, Music and Hospitality. Sackville has become known for its small town charm, combined with an exciting and renowned arts scene and its many small but critically acclaimed festivals. Bordertown is a four day festival that brings these elements together into a variety packed weekend. So explore Sackville, take in the live music, eat a delicious local meal, see some art and take a leisurely stroll along the boardwalk. There’s something for everyone at Bordertown and if you’re adventurous you might just find some surprises too! A wide range of local businesses and organizations have come together to make this possible, The Tantramarsh Blues Society, Sackville Festival of Early Music, Catbird Jazz Society, Live Bait Theatre, SappyFest, Struts Gallery & Faucet Media Arts Centre, The Owens Art Gallery, Fog Forest Gallery, and many more. It has been very exciting to bring all of these dynamic groups and individuals together to put on what will be a thrilling weekend to kick off the summer tourist season.
We look forward to spending the weekend with you.
