The Cape Breton Feminist Society is organizing a Take Back the Night March on Friday, September 25 at 6:00 PM, and we want our community to walk with us.

We will gather at 360 Prince Street (Provincial Government Building) at 6pm and march together to Open Hearth Park Amphitheatre, where we will come together for an evening of:

Speakers, Music, Art & creative expression, Collective Community Presence, and
A vigil to remember those we have lost and honour survivors.

Take Back the Night has a long history as a movement demanding that women and all people have the right to move through their communities without fear of sexual violence, harassment or gender-based violence. What began as grassroots activism in the 1970s has grown into a global movement, one that continues to call for safety, justice, survivor support and systemic change.

And that call is still urgently needed here at home.

Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission and the NS provincial government recognize gender-based and intimate partner violence as an epidemic, following a unanimous legislative declaration in September 2024. 

We walk for those who have survived.
We walk for those we have lost.
We walk for those who cannot walk with us.
And we walk for a future where taking a walk home at night does not require courage.

Join us September 25 at 6 PM.

Bring your voice.
Bring your art.
Bring your music.
Bring your light.
Bring your community.

Together, we take back the night.

Event Postponement Notice

Due to a number of community events, graduation parties, and concerts taking place on the same weekend, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our Girls Just Wanna Dance Fundraiser.

We were looking forward to celebrating with everyone, but we want to ensure the best possible turnout and fundraising success for the Cape Breton Feminist Society.

A new date will be announced as soon as it is confirmed.

Anyone who has already purchased tickets will be contacted directly regarding a full refund. If you have any questions in the meantime, please reach out to us by email or social media message.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. We look forward to dancing with you soon!
