For four days each summer, the motorcycle community focuses on The Wharf Rat Rally. The event is a testament to the profound passion and diverse interests of bike enthusiasts from around the world – and the ways in which Digby Nova Scotia welcomes them all.

Wharf Rat Rally is significant to the companies that serve a broad spectrum of the motorcycle community. It enables commercial partners to have an unmatched forum to present their innovative products and services to the most dedicated biker community of consumers in Atlantic Canada.

The Rally signifies the end of summer and is the final hoorah before the grind of fall and winter set in. Be part of the excitement, reap the rewards! The Wharf Rat Rally brings tens of thousands of people to Digby each year. Our guests are drawn to bright, flashy things; hungry from a good ride and eager to view your wares. They are professionals or well-employed with high school or post-secondary educations and spend over half a million dollars, shopping and eating.

Become A Vendor

Below you will find all the information you need to book your booth. Please note, site reservations can only be confirmed with a 50% deposit on the total cost of the site(s) and Proof of Exhibitor Insurance. The final payment is due by August 10th, 2025. When possible, it is the exhibitor’s responsibility to select their booth with the information sent by email to the organizers. Site reservation(s) after August 1, 2025 requires full payment of site costs plus receipt of your Proof of Exhibitor Insurance for 2025.

We have re-measured and re-worked the spaces around all the canons, monuments and obstacles. We have also measured around the guy wires that anchor onto the water side of Admiral’s Walk.

Now, there won’t be a canon in the middle of anyone’s space, except by choice. For things we can’t get around, like flag poles and water spouts, we’ve made deductions from the cost of the space.

If your space is only 8′ deep, you pay less. If your space is now 12′ or 14′ frontage, you’ll pay more, so take a look at what you need and then align yourself with the proper space, remembering that some 10′ x 10′ tents need a foot or two on each side for guy wires.

The area of Admiral’s Walk is divided into zones.  You can click on each zone to find an interactive map of exhibit spaces.  Each space is priced individually based on size and obstructions.  Spaces are updated once per month between June and August as vendors are confirmed.

The spaces at the Marina are remaining at $400 for a 10′ x 10′ space (because that’s their actual size, there!) plus power as a separate charge. We have only a few spaces there, so no fancy map.

We’ve assigned power directly to each space and rolled the cost of power into that space’s fee.

If you have two spaces and only one has power, you have access to one outlet in the two-outlet fixture.

If you end up with more power outlets than you’re going to need, please let us know so we can offer the extra to one of the spaces near you.

We’re also asking you to let us know what appliances or fixtures you’ll be using that will be drawing power. Travel trailers with fridges, air conditioning and TVs will need more than a lone vending tent with one outlet.

We’re trying hard to line up our requirements with our availability so we don’t have outages this year and we appreciate your cooperation.

Please note that proof of insurance is being strictly enforced this year.

If you need insurance, you can purchase it through ExhibitorInsurance.com by clicking here.

If you are a vendor from outside Canada, there are some hoops to jump through, but they aren’t too bad.

The information can be found on the Canada Border Services Agency’s website.

Value for Duty

Goods for Sale

If you are importing goods for sale within Canada, you must pay full duties and taxes at their first point of entry, as outlined in Memorandum D17-1-0, Accounting for Imported Goods and Payment of Duties Regulations.

When any unsold goods are exported at the close of an event and proof of export has been provided to the CBSA, the importer is entitled to a refund of the duties and some taxes (but not the GST/HST) paid on the unsold portion of the shipment (see Memorandum D17-2-1, Coding of Adjustment Request Forms).

For more information: Memorandum D8-1-4, Form E29B, Temporary Admission Permit (see the section “Alternate Proof of Export”).

You’ll need to have a complete inventory list of all items, quantities, costs and selling amounts on your way into Canada, and then update that list of your remaining inventory before you head back out of Canada.

If you have questions, there is contact information for CBSA offices here.

We hope to see you in Digby!
