Things To Do

We hope you get to make the most of your trip and be a tourist in Newfoundland! We actually chose the date that we did so that you guys have lots of options for things to do.
Royal St. John's Regatta

Royal St. John's Regatta

Quidi Vidi Lake, St. John's, NL A1A, Canada

The oldest documented annual sporting event in North America. A civic holiday which is held the first Wednesday of August (weather dependent). This is the 200th anniversary event, so it will be busy! It is a day time event that takes place at Quidi Vidi Lake, not far from downtown St. John's.

George Street Festival

George Street Festival

George Street, St. John's, NL A1C, Canada

George Street Festival is taking place the week before the wedding. Check out the schedule of events and come a little early to catch this - you won't be disappointed!

Cape Spear Lighthouse

Cape Spear, St. John's, NL A0A, Canada

The most easterly point in North America. Fun thing to say you've been! A bit of a drive from downtown St. John's. May be best to hire a car for the day or get a Newfie to drive you here :)

Signal Hill

Signal Hill

Signal Hill Road, St. John's, NL A1A 1B2, Canada

You won't miss this from downtown St. John's. Good for photo ops!

East Coast Hiking Trail

East Coast Hiking Trail

St. John's, NL, Canada

Beautiful scenery on this trail. It's quite a long hike to do the whole thing, but you can find shorter trails along the way. Careful along those cliffs!

Quidi Vidi

St. John's, NL, Canada

Pronounced (kiddie vid-dee) Beautiful area, close to downtown. Check out the Quidi Vidi Brewery while you're here!

Gros Morne National Park

NL, Canada
(709) 458-2417

This one is not close to St. John's, but if you have time to take a trip across Newfoundland, the scenery is worth it! There is an airport in Deer Lake, it is about an hour drive from there. Other options to get there is to rent a car from St. John's and drive, or take a bus as far as Deer Lake/Corner Brook and get a rental car from there.

Newfoundland Folk Festival

Newfoundland Folk Festival

Bannerman Park, St. John's, NL, Canada

Outdoor folk festival at Bannerman Park. Cool to check out, but the Saturday shows may conflict with the wedding. If you find the time, do stop by and listen to music from local artists. Not too far from downtown.

George Street

George Street, St. John's, NL A1C, Canada

Bars, pubs, clubs, patios, live music - need we say more? This is also where our wedding venue is located! Feel free to stroll the street and experience the local night life.

Boat/Whale Tour

135 Harbour Drive, St. John's, NL A1C 6N6, Canada

Newfoundland has some great opportunities to see beautiful rocky, coastal scenery from a boat! Whales are also very common here, so those whale tours are usually worth the time. There are also sea kayak tours offered outside of St. John's.

Haunted Hike

16 Church Hill, St. John's, NL A1C, Canada

Fun evening walking tour around downtown St. John's while hearing spooky stories and visiting the locations of where those events happened.

St. John's Beer Tour

268 Water Street, St. John's, NL A1C 1B7, Canada

Sign up for a beer tour, or steal the route and DIY!

Jack Axes

152 Water Street, St. John's, NL A1C 1A9, Canada

Go throw an axe or two.

For all the days along the way
