Shaped
by Sand
& Sea

Experience the magic of sand and sea at the Bay of Fundy Sand Sculpture Festival, a three-day celebration of creativity, competition, and the beauty of the world’s highest tides. August 2 to 4, watch as world-class sand sculptors transform the shores of New River Beach Provincial Park into an open-air gallery, crafting masterpieces from nothing but sand and water. But as the tides rise, their creations are reclaimed by the Bay, making each sculpture a temporary wonder.  

Whether you’re watching the masters at work, competing in the amateur competition, or learning the craft in one of the workshops, there is something for everyone. With live music, local artisans, and incredible food and drink, this is a festival you’ll want to experience – before it is washed away!
