The Halifax Forum Community Association has submitted a full and comprehensive proposal for the redevelopment of the Halifax Forum in relation to the Long Term Arena Strategy Plan. 

 

The redevelopment proposal will add an additional arena housing a regulation ice pad.  It also includes renovating the Forum and Civic ice pads to regulation size as well as offering many additional facilities including a community gymnasium.  The redevelopment of the Forum will extend the life of this historic venue for many years to come. 

 

Unfortunately, HRM Staff recently released a report recommending construction of a multi‐pad arena on property owned by CFB Halifax, resulting in closure of 4 arenas, including the Historic Forum and all its amenities.  For more information on this report please go to the following link:

The Halifax Forum Community Association has an impressive track record in developing additional facilities to the Forum (Multi Purpose Centre 1998, Civic Centre 1995 and the Bingo Centre and Maritime Hall in 2003).  We are dedicated to seeing our new plan for this historic Halifax building become a reality and ask for your support.
