City of Miramichi

Situated along the world-famous salmon fishing river, the city of Miramichi
offers festivals, events, cultural and theatrical experiences, that allow you to
discover the heritage of the region and our people. Immerse yourself in our culture,
stories, and songs.
Miramichi has two downtown centres, Newcastle and Chatham, that each
offer unique shopping and dining experiences, and a vibrant shopping district in
Douglastown.
Explore our river, beaches, islands, historic places, and natural spaces. Parks
and walking & biking trails are located throughout the city, offering you plenty of
places to be active outdoors, or relax and enjoy the view.
Thrill seekers can take the zipline over French Fort Cove, and speed lovers
will discover two race tracks to keep them entertained.

the stars, listening to a live band, or enjoying dinner while overlooking the
Miramichi River, the choice is yours.
