The flag of Acadia was adopted on August 15, 1884, at the Second Acadian National Convention held in Miscouche, Prince Edward Island by nearly 5, 000 Acadian delegates from across the Maritimes.

The Acadians are a French-speaking people who live in the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. The northern region of New Brunswick is now commonly called Acadia.

It was designed by Father Marcel-Francois Richard, a priest from Saint-Louis-de-Kent, New Brunswick. The Musée acadien at the Université de Moncton has the original flag presented by Father Richard to the 1884 Convention. It was sewn by Marie Babineau.
