Concert by The East Pointers at the Light House Arts Centre in Halifax.
The East Pointers are playing the Light House Arts Centre on Friday, November 20, 2026. It's a single night in Halifax, and they're the only act on the bill.
If you're not familiar with them, they're a family band from Cape Breton, and the music they make is rooted in the fiddle traditions of the East Coast. It's that kind of sound that doesn't need a lot of explanation if you've spent any time around the Maritimes — fiddle-led, with the kind of energy that comes from playing together for years. They've built their name on the touring circuit, and this is one of those dates that brings them into the city for a full evening.
The set will be a concert, with the band as the main feature. They're playing at the Light House Arts Centre, which is right in the heart of downtown Halifax, so it's an easy one to get to whether you're coming from within the city or driving in from the outskirts. If you've seen them before, you know the kind of night to expect: the fiddle at the front, the family harmonies, and the sort of Cape Breton sound that's as much about the dance as it is about the listening.
