On Lunenburg's colourful historic waterfront stand the iconic red buildings that once housed a fish processing plant. Today they hold the stories and artifacts of a fishing heritage, and they open their doors to special occasions too.
The Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic sits in Lunenburg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is operated by the Lunenburg Marine Museum Society, the volunteer group that also operates the schooner Bluenose II for the Province of Nova Scotia.
The museum offers a variety of rental spaces for special occasions, meetings and events. Options include the theatre, an outdoor stage, the off-site Boat Shop on Burma Road, the Bluenose exhibit with the theatre included, and other galleries for evening use.
Some spaces lean directly into the harbour setting. Wharf space is available during the open season from May to October, and wharfage and berthing can be arranged for vessels, which opens up some wonderfully maritime possibilities.
A couple might gather guests among the galleries for an evening reception, or use the outdoor stage to keep the celebration close to the water. The restaurant space on site is arranged through its own separate contact.
Every rental begins with a space rental application, and availability depends on current bookings and museum operations, so the museum team is the best starting point for shaping an event around the spaces.
Through the year the museum also hosts community events on the waterfront, a reminder of how much this place is woven into life in Lunenburg.
For couples who want their celebration to carry the salt air and seafaring history of Lunenburg's waterfront, the Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic offers a setting with a genuine story behind every room.
