Area 506 Waterfront Container Village, Open-air event venue and music space at Saint John waterfront, Canada
The Waterfront Container Village encompasses over 60 shipping containers transformed into retail shops, performance spaces, food areas, and entertainment zones along the water.
The venue opened in June 2022 as an expansion of the previous Area 506 Vendor Village, creating a permanent waterfront destination for residents and visitors.
The venue features public art installations and performances that celebrate the maritime identity of Saint John and its connection to the port activities.
The Container Village operates from May to November, with standard hours from Wednesday to Saturday 11 AM to 6 PM and Sundays 12 PM to 5 PM.
Each retail container includes both garage door and person-door access, allowing vendors to create individual spaces that reflect their business requirements.
