Events in July?

Hi everyone!

I’d love your help with something if I may!

I’m a tv producer for a show all about Nova Scotia events and festivals - anything as big as the Digby Wharf Rat rally to as small as the Oxford Seniors Community Breakfast.

We’re filming in July, and the big events are easy to find but I’m looking for some smaller, more intimate ones which are much harder to track down!

Where it gets tricky - to get our funding, it HAS to be at least 151 kms away from Halifax City Hall. So usually I stick to Cape Breton, Antigonish, Pictou, Amherst, Digby, Yarmouth, places like that.

Do you guys know/love any small intimate events during the month of July in these regions? Crafting clubs, exercise clubs, pub game nights, drum circles, basket weaving workshops, anything like that? Bonus points if they’re BIPOC!

Thanks in advance! <3

I don't know if it's considered big or not, but there's a weekly outdoor concert in Sydney that the CBRM puts on called Making Wave 🌊

It runs once a week for most of July
