Getting Here & Getting Around
Halifax is so easily accessible by air, land and sea; you’ll be here before you know it!
Halifax Stanfield International Airport is Atlantic Canada’s centre for domestic, regional and international flight service offering direct flights to and from other Canadian cities, major city centres in the U.S., as well as the UK and Continental Europe.
It is approximately a 30 minute drive from Halifax Stanfield International Airport to downtown Halifax. There are several options from local transit to taxi, limo or Uber - more details on options can be found here. Once downtown, all Bridges 2023 conference events will be within walking distance so a car rental isn’t necessary.
