Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame: a visitor planning guide

The Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame honours excellence in sport by sharing stories of the province’s history and sport heroes. Its collections and programs add context to the people and achievements recognized by the organization.

The Hall of Fame also supports sport education beyond the museum: it provides free education programming and oversees a nominations process to select new inductees annually. As a not-for-profit and registered charity, it works to preserve and share Nova Scotia’s sporting heritage.
