Xperium city guide

Things to do in Nelson

Nelson Museum, Archives & Gallery gives arts and history a shared home, with exhibitions and a Cold War bunker tour among its offerings. The District Community Complex adds a more active option through aquatics, fitness, and ice.

The Public Library provides another cultural stop with reading spaces and programs. Check museum tour availability and any recreation session first, then fit library time into the same day.
