Seafood Fiesta, meet Maritime Kitchen Party.
Everyone’s favourite Seafood Fiesta, normally held during June’s Port Days, is back. For one year only, the fiesta is being re-imagined into a bigger, better Maritime Kitchen Party. The event is shaping up to be the same Seafood Fiesta many have come to know and love, with some extra room for out-of-town guests.This September, over 250 port leaders from across the country will descend on Saint John for the 60th annual Association of Canadian Port Authorities (ACPA) Conference & AGM. In true east coast fashion, the conference will wrap up with a Maritime Kitchen Party on Wednesday, September 12th. It’s not hard to tell that this party’s the real deal- it’s sponsored by three Maritime hospitality experts: Port Saint John, Port of Belledune and Port of Halifax.With a reception in the Market Square Atrium followed by dinner and live entertainment at the Trade & Convention Centre, folks from #SaintAwesome will get to show delegates from all corners of Canada what being a Maritimer’s all about. Attendees will be treated to the Bay of Fundy’s world-class seafood, unmatched networking, and the lively Atlantic Canadian sounds of Gordie MacKeeman and His Rhythm Boys.To buy tickets and tables, visit our Eventbrite site.Looking to walk home from the festivities? Make sure to give the Hilton Saint John a call before August 24th, 2018 to get your special Maritime Kitchen Party rate.
