Save the date! Nova Scotians are invited to attend the annual New Year’s Day Levée at Government House (1451 Barrington Street) on Monday, January 1st from 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM.

The event is free and open to the public. Invitations or advanced registration are not required to attend. 

During the Levée, guests will exchange New Year’s greetings with the Lieutenant Governor and Mrs. LeBlanc while visiting the oldest vice-regal residence in North America.

Support the Local Community

Government House will be collecting new, clean socks to support mobile outreach health services and foot care clinics organized by the North End Community Health Centre. 

Individuals who are unhoused during the winter months are at risk of health issues including trench foot and foot infections. Access to dry, clean socks is a leading preventative measure and does much to support the overall health of the individual.  

Sock donations will be accepted at the front door and delivered to the North End Community Health Centre in early January.
