'Quidi Vidi' (pronunciations vary, even amongst longtime residents, but "Kiddy Viddy" is the most common) is a neighbourhood in
St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. It was known for once being a historic fishing village.
The neighbourhood is named for both Quidi Vidi Lake (where the
Royal St. John's Regatta is held the first Wednesday in August, weather permitting) and Quidi Vidi Harbour - known locally as "The Gut". Located in Quidi Vidi is the Quidi Vidi Battery Provincial Historic Site
[1], which had significance as a
battery during the
War of 1812. The village is also home to Newfoundland's largest microbrewery, the
Quidi Vidi Brewing Company.
