With its charming historic streets, dozens of restaurants, bars, and galleries in its uptown, and the beautiful Bay of Fundy on its doorstep, the region provides a vibrant city full of adventure on the edge of nature.

We are very proud of our track record of successfully hosting major events, and will work hard to demonstrate why you can count on our community to step up and deliver.

Land acknowledgement

The Saint John Region is situated on the traditional and unceded territory of the Wolastoqiyik, Mi’Kmaq, and Peskotomuhkati Nations. This territory is covered by Peace and Friendship Treaties signed with the British Crown in the 1700s. The treaties did not surrender the territory and resources, but recognized Wolastoqiyik, Mi’Kmaq, and Peskotomuhkati title, and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations.

Envision Saint John: The Regional Growth Agency pays respect to the elders, past and present, and descendants of this land, and is committed to moving forward in the spirit of truth, collaboration, and reconciliation.
