Halifax Fizzfest and beerfest start in 3 days!

This is going to be a busy weekend! With Halifax Fizzfest and Beerfest and the Lunenburg Folk Harbour Festival beginning on the 8th, the Great Outdoors Comedy Fest starting on the 9th, there is no shortage of things to do this weekend and it is never to early to begin plans.
