Kings Square



In 1909, The Carlton Cornet Band presented the King Edward VII Memorial Bandstand in King Square to the people of Saint John. The Duke of Connaught unveiled the tablet on the side of the King Square bandstand which was dedicated to his brother the King, the only such memorial in Canada.

In the summer the square surrounding the bandstand and fountain is a popular spot for families and tourists sitting and enjoying this magnificent green spot in the heart of Saint John.
