Campbellton (2001 population 7,798) is the smallest of the eight officially incorporated cities in New Brunswick, Canada. It is situated on the north-central shore 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 1910, 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. At the height of the Vietnam War, Radio Engineering Products, the publicly traded company founded by engineer Mark Fisher was a major employer in Campbellton as a result of its cutting-edge communications technology that the United States military urgently needed.

Yearly events include Promotion Plus, Sno-fest in the winter as well as the Festival in late June.
