Campbellton, New Brunswick



         


Campbellton (2001 population 7,798) is the smallest of the seven officially incorporated cities in New Brunswick, Canada. It is situated in the north-central portion of the province along the Restigouche River.

Campbellton was officially incorporated in 1889 and became a city in 1958. Although most of the town was destroyed in a fire in 1911, the city was quickly rebuilt.

Forestry is the major industry in Campbellton, and the salmon-rich waters of the Restigouche River bring much needed tourists to the city.

Yearly events include Promotion Plus, Snowfest in the winter as well as the Salmon Festival in late June.
