Open City 2013 at the Piazza

OPEN CITY 2013

Open City 2013 is taking place Saturday, May 11th to celebrate all things local in Halifax. The Piazza at Bishop’s Landing is proud to be participating as a sponsor again this year with live music, gift certificate giveaways and plenty of reasons to buy local!

LIVE MUSIC BY ACRES & ACRES

To celebrate the day and add to the atmosphere, local group Acres & Acres will perform on the Piazza fountain from 11:00am – 3:00pm. A family-friendly group, Acres & Acres have received great accolades through the last few years with their easy listening tunes and top 10 charts across the country. The artists are very focused on the ‘buy local’ philosophy, making them a perfect fit for the event. You can read more about them here.
