PICTOU LOBSTER CARNIVAL CELEBRATING 90 YEARS BY THE SEA In our last issue, we shared our Big Summer Music Festival Bucket List, but we understand that big crowds and venues are not what all our readers are looking for in their summer festival plans. So that being said, our researchers went on the hunt again from British Columbia to Newfoundland, analyzing over a hundred summer music festivals from all genres with under 15,000 daily festivalgoers for what we think are the Small & Mighty Summer Music Festivals of 2024 and very deserving of being on anyone’s bucket list. 2024’S SMALL & MIGHTY SUMMER MUSIC FESTIVAL BUCKET LIST

As the entire 2024 Pictou Lobster Carnival Leadership Team was busy planning and gearing up for the upcoming events and festivals, we were able to trap Carnival Chair, Glen Jackson, for a few moments to talk about this celebration that has been 90 years in the making. We learn that this carnival is more than just a three-day festival in early July that celebrates the end of the lobster fishing season. It is a signature Nova Scotia event celebrating Maritime culture, music, and East Coast Lifestyle.
In the town of Parrsboro, Nova Scotia, the Harbour View Restaurant is an institution. Once known as The Pier, this property has been dishing out delicious food for decades. While no one’s sure exactly when the restaurant was established, word of mouth suggests that there has been a canteen there since the 1950s, and once you try the food and experience the hospitality you will know why. Oh yeah, and the view of the highest tides in the World is not too shabby either! Vineyards, and Tides.
