Our Story:
(photo above by Corey Katz)
Cape Breton contractor and entrepreneur, Kevin Colford, purchased the historic former Sacred Heart Church in 2018 with a dream of turning it into a jaw dropping multi-functional venue for celebration, entertainment, and hospitality. Fast forward to 2021, and he’s ready to do just that. Named Sacred Heart Downtown as a tribute to the rich history of the former parish, and the community that birthed and cared for the building for over a century.
Preserving the 140 year old 19th century architecture and applying some aesthetic upgrades, the ballroom is a royal space available to weddings, dinners, dances, live music & entertainment, corporate functions, dinner theatre, and functions of all kinds. Its purpose limited only by the occupants imagination.
The guiding philosophy of Sacred Heart? A passion for care. Whether you are headlining, working, or attending one of our events, we are here to take care of you. Every inch of our space has been reimagined to intuitively meet the largest and smallest needs of any occasion. From the industry standard prep room for our caterers, to the private bathroom reserved for the bride on her special day, to the phone charging stations at our coat check, we’ve thought of it all so you don’t have to.
In the short time we’ve been open, Sacred Heart Downtown has had the pleasure of hosting weddings, receptions, a sold out dinner theatre, and the 2021 ECMA’s, to name a few.
Located in Downtown Sydney, Nova Scotia
217 George Street in Downtown Sydney on beautiful Cape Breton Island. Come for the event, stay for the everything else.
