Nova Scotia Buzz
The following is a joint release from The Old Triangle Halifax, Durty Nelly’s, Finbar’s Irish Pub, Celtic Corner, The Old Triangle Irish Alehouse Sydney and Governor’s Pub & Eatery.
This afternoon the Province of Nova Scotia and the Department of Health issued updated guidelines for the hospitality industry. With St. Patrick’s Day only 48 hours away, the following establishments have jointly decided that it is in the best interest of all concerned if local St. Patrick’s Day celebrations are postponed. As a result Finbar’s Irish Pub, The Celtic Corner, Durty Nellie’s and The Old Triangle along with the Old Triangle Sydney and Governors Pub in Sydney have decided to postpone their traditional St. Patrick’s Day festivities including early opening, and tentatively re-scheduled them for May 17th 2020.
All establishments will continue to operate on their regular business hours while adhering to the guidelines proposed in today’s press conference regarding social distancing and group gatherings. While we continue to uphold the highest level of health and hygiene standards in our establishments we also encourage our guests to be vigilant and responsible.
We are all very hopeful that the preventative measures taken by government and the public will limit the pain caused by this outbreak. Happy St. Patrick’s Day seems inappropriate at the moment but we do wish all of our guests, friends, staff and families the very best as we face an uncertain immediate future. We’re all in this together.
