Hi, we’re Hey Freddy
The whole idea, in 42 seconds.
Amanda on why a few locals built one place for everything Fredericton: the events, the guides, the answers, and yes, the sweatshirt.
Honestly, we were just so tired of having to check a million different places to figure out what was going on. So we made the one thing we wish we had.
Amanda, Hey Freddy
Read the transcript
Hey Freddy, we live here too. And if you haven’t heard about Hey Freddy, I’m here to tell you all about it. So basically, Hey Freddy is a hub for everything Fredericton, all in one place: events, things to do, local services, all of it. Honestly, we were just so tired of having to check a million different places to figure out what was going on, so we made the one thing that we wish we had. The whole idea is to bring everyone together in one place, because when we can see what’s going on, we can all show up for our local businesses and all the great events that are happening in our city. And this is exactly how we create a community. And you can ask Freddy anything, like what’s open, things to do, what’s happening this weekend, all of it. Anyway, we love exploring the city with you, so come say hi at heyfreddy.ca.

An accompanying book of the same name, published by Goose Lane Editions, combines these elements into a single volume available through the Beaverbrook Boutique. The exhibition runs through December.
