Calendar of events

Freedom of the City is an honour granted to military or paramilitary groups in recognition of their service to a municipality.

Since 1998, the 78th Highlanders has exercised this privilege by marching through the streets of Halifax with bayonets fixed, drums beating, and Colours flying.

Enjoy the special squad inspection inside the Citadel starting at 11 am, then follow the Highlanders as they march on parade.
