Public WiFi

Current public WiFi locations in Halifax

Free public WiFi service is currently available at multiple locations within the municipality, and at select Halifax Public Libraries. 

The Municipal Public WiFi initiative, approved by Regional Council in February 2017, builds on a foundation for delivering the next generation of municipal services – aimed at increasing economic activity and providing both residents and visitors with greater opportunities by helping close the digital divide.  

Municipal public WiFi does not block or throttle (slow down) any applications related to texting or calling.

Bell is responsible for monitoring and responding to all questions and concerns regarding connectivity or access issues. Municipal public WiFi has a 24/7/365 support desk available to all users. The toll-free number is 1-844-376-WIFI (or 1-844-376-9434).
