About the Destination

Antigonish —
Celtic Heart of Nova Scotia

Antigonish is a welcoming Nova Scotia university town of ~5,000, known for its Celtic heritage, the Antigonish Highland Games, and a strong community identity. Located on the Trans-Canada Highway 104, it is both a destination in its own right and a gateway to Cape Breton Island.

The town's Celtic roots run deep — Gaelic was spoken here long after it faded elsewhere in Canada, and the Highland Games tradition has continued since 1863. The stunning St. Ninian Cathedral, farmers markets, and Antigonish Harbour add to the town's character.
