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.

On Friday, the festival arrives in Saint John for a new uptown sculpting showcase on the Market Square Boardwalk. On Saturday and Sunday, New River Beach Provincial Park becomes an open-air gallery where world-class sand sculptors transform sand and water into extraordinary works of art before the Bay reclaims them. Watch the masters at work, cheer on the amateur competition, and join a free family workshop before it is washed away.
