Changes from 2015
- Table now includes accessibility information.
- New levee at Andrews of Stratford.
- New levee at Upstreet Craft Brewing (well-timed for an uptown swing to UPEI and the Women’s Institute).
- New levee from Discover Charlottetown and The Guild.
- There is no levee at HMCS Queen Charlotte this year.
- Added the levee for The Kitchen Witch. Not technically in the “Charlottetown Area,” but included nonetheless.
- The Premier’s Levee returns to the Confederation Centre of the Arts.
- In a stunning blow to the “Charlottetown area” in the title of this post, I’ve added the City of Summerside levee for this first time. Welcome, western neighbours.
- Now that Summerside’s on the list, seems only right to add Borden-Carleton. And Kensington.

Back in The Beginning, I
Back in The Beginning, I tried to call the Fire Department about this. Eventually I got through, and I was told that this wasn’t a levee, per se, but rather a dance. It also wasn’t clear whether or not the public was invited or not. So I’ve always left if off. I’d be happy to be disabused of these notions if things have changed.
