What we do

Three Honest Trades

01

Concert Booking

We book touring and local artists into the best small rooms on the South Shore, from Chester and Mahone Bay to Lunenburg, Bridgewater, Riverport, and Liverpool.

02

Show Promotion

Posters on poles, tickets online, word of mouth done right. We promote every show like it's the only one happening that night, because around here it usually is.

03

Poster Design

Hand-made gig posters and artwork for our shows and yours. Built to get people off the couch and worth keeping after the encore.

Who we are

Honest John Productions is a nonprofit concert promoter and event organization on Nova Scotia's South Shore. We handle concert booking and promotion for touring and local artists, bringing live music to the halls, churches, and back rooms of Bridgewater, Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, Chester, Riverport, and Liverpool, and up the highway to Dartmouth and Halifax. And we keep it honest: fair deals for artists, fair prices at the door.

Every show is run by volunteers, and everything we make goes right back into the next one. If you've got a room, a band, or an idea for something cool, we want to hear about it.
