Throughout the year, we host a variety of festivals and events that showcase our local culture, from the famous Wharf Rat Rally to our much-anticipated Scallop Days.But what truly sets Digby apart is its people — a close-knit community where neighbors know each other, visitors are treated like friends, and civic pride runs deep.
We are proud of our heritage and excited about our future, and we invite you to experience all that Digby has to offer.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our town. We hope your time in Digby is enjoyable, memorable, and filled with the warmth that makes our community so special.Mike Bartlett Mayor, Town of Digby
