The 879 area code was created as a split from the original area code that once covered all of Newfoundland and Labrador. Today, 879 is exclusively tied to the region, located at the heart of St. John's. It covers iconic neighborhoods like:
St. John's – the bustling heart of the province
Mount Pearl – the vibrant, diverse community
Corner Brook – home to rich culture and history
For generations, 879 has represented Newfoundland pride, offering the best of life with fast access to all local areas.
The 879 area code operates in the Newfoundland Time Zone (NT)–the same time zone as Newfoundland and Labrador. This is important for businesses and professionals who need to stay in sync with local clients, suppliers, and partners. Whether you’re scheduling calls, running local ads, or managing customer support, having a 879 number means you’re aligned with Newfoundland Standard Time (NST) in winter and Newfoundland Daylight Time (NDT) in summer.
The 879 area code covers all of Newfoundland and Labrador, including:
St. John's
Mount Pearl
Corner Brook
and many more.
Getting a 879 number gives your calls a familiar, local presence in one of Newfoundland’s busiest regions. It’s perfect for real estate agents, freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who wants to appear local while staying flexible.
