Fredericton is the capital of Canadian province, New Brunswick. It is an extremely important city in both New Brunswick and Canada, and is considered the cultural centre of New Brunswick. The city is renowned for its jazz, blues and rock music, as well as its many music festivals. Hiring a car in New Brunswick means that whatever time of year you visit, you will be able to travel across the city with ease and see everything that it has to offer, from the galleries and museums, the monuments and landmarks - there's plenty to see and do in Fredericton.
For art fans visiting Fredericton, there is one place that should certainly not be overlooked and that is the Beaverbrook Art Gallery. One of the most prestigious galleries in the area, the Beaverbrook Art Gallery is home to a huge collection of modern art, including several works from the master Salvador Dali. It also houses works by other notable artists from history including Turner and Constable. The city is also the host of several well-known music festivals, including the Harvest Jazz and Blues Festival and the New Brunswick Summer Music Festival.
If you're looking for somewhere to visit outside of Fredericton, perhaps for a day trip or for a couple of days, you might want to consider Moncton. Car enthusiasts will no doubt want to head straight for the classic car festival that the city hosts once a year, but by no means are they the only people suited to the city. Moncton is also host of the World Wine Festival, The HubCap Comedy Festival and The Atlantic Seafood Festival, meaning that there really is something to cater for everyone.
