The AREA 506 Festival takes place in Uptown Saint John every year over the New Brunswick Day long weekend, and features the best of our province’s music, culture and goods.
The Waterfront Container Village creates the backdrop for a diverse group of vendors, brands and cultural groups to truly showcase the energy and ingenuity of our province’s artisans, craftspeople and musicians. Since 2016, we’ve been transforming the Saint John waterfront and programming an amazing weekend of music for thousands of attendees.
Check out some highlights from 2024:
The Festival tent pops up in the space alongside the AREA 506 Waterfront Container Village and takes over Water Street for an incredible weekend of free, family-friendly experiences.
