PICTOU LOBSTER CARNIVAL A Maritime Tradition That Still Draws Thousands to Nova Scotia’s North Shore
by Ryan Myson
Every summer, the picturesque waterfront town of Pictou transforms into one of Atlantic Canada’s liveliest festival destinations. The smell of fresh lobster drifts through the air, midway rides light up the harbourfront, live music echoes across the water, and generations of families gather to celebrate one of Nova Scotia’s most enduring traditions — the Pictou Lobster Carnival, North America’s Longest Running Celebration of the Lobster Fishing Industry!
